Clarkson is such a Hoon! I wanna drive one of these stat. Been seeing a lot of the frs on the road lately. There's a white one in Marin that is on a set of goldies and it looks real purty like.

Talked to a Corporate Subaru rep.
"I'm ****ing tired of these kids coming and asking me where the STi model is, the turbo one is, or... the supercharged one is..... This car needs to stay N/A"
Awesome man!!!!

It's fine staying N/A. The BRZ was never not about straight line performance. It's meant to be a fun handling car. You'd be surprised by how much speed the BRZ/FR-S can carry through turns in stock form.

I am wondering if Clarkson's statement about BRZ/FRS using the same eco (low roll resistance) tires as the Prius is true, which allows for such easy loss of traction.
