New BRZ commercial


And for lulz:
The first Subaru commercial in the US.

The consensus I have gotten from people that have driven them is that they are way too low on power to be worth the $25k price tag.

Not everyone values a car based on horsepower. It's handling capabilities surpass anything on the market at the price point - and then some.

Haven't seen a car commercial like that since the 90's. Only thing wrong was the "music" selection. laugh.gif

Indeed, V6 Camaro and the Hyundai Genesis Coupe are in the same price range.

Well if you are looking for handling you can pick up a miata for much cheaper wink.gif... Also the Genesis makes 75 more hp and about twice the torque as the FRS.


EDIT: I have not driven one yet so I suppose I should not be commenting...But the NA 4cyl boxer was a stupid choice IMO.

But you would have to wake up every morning to the fact that you drive a Hyundai. laugh.gif

The only thing worth anything from Korea right now is her:


I could buy a Miata for cheaper, but I already have a 2-seater that would beat the pants off of a Miata.


FR-S has four seats (if you're hauling midgets, but four nonetheless), more power than the Miata, better fuel economy than the Miata, it doesn't have the reliability of a Mazda (read: wet napkin), and doesn't look like poop..... like the Miata.

And I'm not gay, so no Miata for me. Darn. tongue.gif







Serioiusly, go find someone with a BR-Z/FR-S and drive it. Then come back.
