BAC5.2 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I'm going to buy a BRZ, daily drive it, and enjoy the F*** out of it just to spite you. Ha! That would be funny. I'll consider one if they make a faster version, and I genuinely will. But were I in the market for a "sports car", I can't think of one that I'd rather have for that kind of money than an Elise.

BAC5.2 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Can we move past this, please? Absolutely, but I'm not the one who keeps bringing it up. I'm just saying it's going to be slow, which apparently BRZ fans now agree with me about.

Except I never trolled, just posted my opinion when asked, and a fact that BRZ future owners agreed with.

Magic Marker Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 I received an email survey from SOA. Asking if I were to buy one right now, how would I order it.... in terms of trim level and accessories/ color/ trans etc. Then I received an email yesterday stating that dealers are now able to take pre-orders for a very limited production. IMO, I don't see this as a long term production car. Maybe 2-3 years tops. If you're among the diehard Subaru enthusiasts hungry to get their hands on the all-new 2013 Subaru BRZ, it's time to take action. Subaru dealers are now taking orders for the intriguing Subaru BRZ. It's the first sports car to do it all with a classic longitudinal drivetrain powered by a SUBARU BOXER® engine up front. Quantities are extremely limited and demand is high, so contact your local Subaru dealer for availability. 2011 Volvo S60T6 & 2013 Volvo XC60T6 Polestar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, I don't see this as a long term production car. Maybe 2-3 years tops. We'll see. Considering how off the trail this is for Subaru, it makes perfect sense that they wouldn't commit to large production numbers. I think they're feeling the market out. The car has the numbers to be a success like the Miata. Who knows? I hope it's successful and doesn't lose its focus over time like the WRX did.

PhilT Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 If SoA had half a brain, they would realise that they could increase sales enormously if they fitted a turbo. If they don't then some enterprising company will do it for them.

hmmrdwn Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 The fuel economy on the manual transmission is abysmal. Are people buying these looking for fuel economy? Can't the transmission be fixed with a short throw shift kit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The B4 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 The fuel economy on the manual transmission is abysmal. not really. It's probably geared for sport as opposed fuel economy. The lighter, less powerful Miata has worse fuel economy. I'm not doubting that real world driving on this car will return better than EPA numbers. The automatic is really good. It will sell well to someone looking for a sporty, fuel efficient, quick, good looking car. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please link me to a short shifter that improves fuel economy.
