I'm in love with the looks of them.
Don't care for the motor much, but with 26/34mpg rating, be a nice daily thing.
10 yrs maybe I'll whore one up.

That's typical Subaru factory tuning; a tune or OTS map will smooth everything out.

I think we should set up a group test drive and see how mad they get when 30 people show up at one time.

Re: The new Subie coupe is here

Hmmm... just got rid of my 2008 Eclipse GT.

Was hoping to replace it with an EVO.

And posts like this distract me. :-)

Re: The new Subie coupe is here

I like the BRZ/FRS but I know theyll come out with a better one or something later on so I'd Like to wait and see here how it goes. Kind of makes me glad I held back on the genesis, Now I'm shooting for a 2013 Turbo coupe which should be a better car.

Re: The new Subie coupe is here

I still wouldn't mind picking up a Skye turbo, RWD for the win, even if the interior reminds me of a Happy Meal box.

Re: The new Subie coupe is here

I've seen these at a few local auto x events now and the BRZ has the potential to replace the Miata if I go for something newer to track. As a whole, one of the better sports cars for my tastes that is out there. I really like the Genesis as well, but the BRZ in Blue is really really sharp!

Re: The new Subie coupe is here

Theres a Blue BRZ and a couple 2013 Gen. Coupes at one of the dealerships I tow cars into. I'm going to test drive them back to back one of these days if I get a chance. They know me pretty well down there, so Theyll pry let me take them out.
