| Facts about the FH BRZ: - Same aftermarket bumpers as the FR-S (of course) - '11 STi engine swap is available - PI is 2 lower than the FR-S to start with - Launch is .2 worse than the FR-S Stats comparison: FR-S Cost: 24,000 PI: 375 Speed: 5.6 Handling: 8.3 Acceleration: 6.2 Launch: 6.0 Braking: 7.8 BRZ Cost: 27,000 PI: 373 Speed: 5.6 Handling: 8.3 Acceleration: 6.2 Launch: 5.8 Braking: 7.8 Honestly, the only reasons one would buy this over the FR-S in game are: - Prefer Subaru over Toyota - Make Subaru Rally liveries - STi engine swap Other than that, there's not really a reason to spend the extra 2,000cr...unless you can get a better performing BRZ over the FR-S. I have a fully tuned FR-S that's a PI of R3 756 (would vary depending on wheels). With the STi swap, and all of the best parts, the BRZ comes to... R2 821! So, there you go. Maybe the BRZ isn't a total waste of space if you can tune it to kick it's FR-S twin's can. | |
| I wasnt sure about AWD or RWD, so I went to the #1 dutch car magazine and they said it was AWD? Anyway, the fact that not even the drivetrain is different makes this being added even more pointless. | |
Stating the obvious or not, he was simply correcting MartinBond. Don't see anything wrong in that.  -- Last edit: 2013-02-04 10:07:27 | |
| I know man, I was lol'ing @ him due to him stating the obvious. | |
| I NEED NAWZZZ wrote Actually, other than interior trim, badging and slightly stiffer suspension, it is identical to the FR-S. Also, this is Made for U.S. Nope the front is totally different, It actually looks better! and @lcpdcv it is RWD 200 BPH 2.0l engine. My Friend owns one, and just to say on the first try, car of the Year for me. | |
| SubaruSTi856 wrote The BRZ isn't all wheel drive it is rear wheel drive.  | |
It's got the same weight, same gearbox, same 200 HP, 205 Nm, 4-cyl boxer engine as the FR-S, but with different badges and all wheel drive, so it's léss exciting to drive. Yay!  | |
| They could add Legacy instead... | |

| FRANKIE SAYS RELAX wrote no offense but this is just stupid, it's a work of maybe an hour to change the badges. I would have preferred another car (VW T1 for example) than this... The only thing that looks the same is the rear but most of things is different. | |

| Finally! OMG Can't wait to burn all the rubber! | |
| Nice! I'm getting happy for this. Both BRZ and FR-S would be great! | |
