I purchased this car a few months ago with the intention of using it as my daily driver as I needed something that was good on gas, but wanted something that was also fun to drive. I was really interested in the BRZ as they have gotten rave reviews other than the fact that many had wished for a bit more power. In coming across this build, I noticed it had everything I would have ever wanted to do to a BRZ and plenty of “then some”. The car does not disappoint as it handles phenomenally and has what feels to be an unlimited power band. The car has been built right with everything flowing together, not overdone or cheesy, but a purposeful, quality build that retains everything that you love about the BRZ and takes it one step further. OK, a few steps further.

So, why now am I wanting to sell it? I took a leap of faith buying this thinking I could transition from my 2010 Tundra Crewmax 4X4 to something that was a purposeful built, fuel efficient, sports car. Frankly, I was wrong. There is plenty to love about this car, but it is just not me.

The car was just inspected and serviced with care paid to the few minor details needing attention (alignment, tire balancing, and leaking brake line) and while at the speed shop, I had the suspension adjusted for optimization. There are no issues with the car as I and the previous owner have been meticulous in its care.

The car has ~20k miles on it. I and the previous owner are adult drivers who have never abused the car and have maintained her well. The BRZ is regularly serviced with Motul products and inspected regularly. The purchase price of the car new was $32.5K (not including taxes) with over $22K of premium parts and clean/quality upgrades invested into the car. It's truly done right and all-around perfect.

The Limited Trim includes navigation, push button start, alcantara/leather heated seats, dual automated climate control w/digital read outs, and a Homelink adaptive rear view mirror.

Hi-po Toyota GT86 to get KERS?

Fri, 09 Nov 2012

We happen to like the Toyota GT86 - and, it of course goes without saying that the same applies to the Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S, as well - just the way it is. Yes, that includes the standard 2.0-liter four-cylinder boxer engine and its 200 horsepower at 7,000 rpm.
That said, a little extra power never hurt anybody, right?
The most obvious way to add some punch to the GT86 would be with a turbocharger, and that has indeed long been rumored for an STI version of the BRZ. Will Toyota follow suit? According to Top Gear, the answer is no. Says GT86 chief engineer Tetsuya Tada, "I think 300bhp with a turbo and 200g/km of CO2 would be tasteless in this day and age. And a turbo would mean the loss of the GT86's uniqueness." Perhaps a bit harsh, but there you go.

2015 Subaru Legacy, Outback crash their way to IIHS Top Safety Pick+ ratings [w/video]

Wed, 20 Aug 2014

The Subaru Legacy and Outback are the latest vehicles to be awarded the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's most prestigious safety title, Top Safety Pick+.
As we've explained many times before, this only applies vehicles that can score an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating on the five IIHS crash tests and earn at least a "Basic" rating for crash prevention systems.
In the Legacy's case, it totally aced IIHS's testing, earning "Good" scores on the small overlap, front moderate overlap, side impact, roof crush and rear impact tests, while also bringing home the top "Superior" rating for its optional EyeSight system.

Is the Subaru BRZ STI being teased really only a tS version?

Mon, 05 Aug 2013

Teaser images of a purported Subaru BRZ STI were uncovered last night and sent the internet into a collective state of hysterics. That's not hugely surprising, though, considering the reverence that the BRZ, along with its fraternal twins, the Scion FR-S and Toyota GT86, have garnered from the automotive media. The sole sticking point, really, has been its mere 200 horsepower. People have been chomping at the bit over a higher output version of the sublime rear driver.
Those same people may be in for a disappointment, though. See, the BRZ STI that was teased last night might not be a real STI. Instead, it's looking like it might be a BRZ tS. According to 7Tune.com, the timing of the photos posted on Subaru's website lined up with Subaru's 86 Festival at Fuji Speedway, where the Subaru BRZ tS debuted. Despite wearing STI badges, the tS isn't the full-tilt STI model we've been hoping for. Instead, you can think of the relationship between tS models and STI models as sort of like the difference between a BMW 3 Series M Sport and a BMW M3.
Certainly, the speccing of the tS supports that idea. The engine of the BRZ remains untouched in both tS models, which is one of the primary things we expect a full-bore STI to address. A number of interior and exterior styling items have been added, along with Bilstein suspension pieces and six-pot Brembo brakes. The tS sports two different trim levels, with the higher end using Recaro seats, black alloy wheels, and a carbon-fiber rear spoiler. The base tS features silver wheels, standard seats, and all the same suspension and brake upgrades. Adding fuel to the fire that these are not the true STI models is the limited production run - Subaru will only build 750 tS cars.
