Subaru created a video giving two lucky enthusiasts the chance to drive the BRZ on some twisty hilly California roads for a day, and then getting their impressions about the BRZ!

Here are the previews for each driver: Check it out!

lol I just really believe in this car, and I'm doing my best to get the word out!

I've been watching for years as gas prices rise, knowing that mpg has to go up, and wondering if that would kill having fun in cars. The BRZ is like an emphatic yes, that we can have even more fun, and raise mpg. Plus a car this awesome deserves a future. I'm just trying to do my part to share the joyful message!

The other thing this car does that I 'believe in' is reward people for being in the present moment. So many techy things while wonderfully entertaining distract us from the present. So I think the BRZ is 'good for us'! Joy, happy, fun, and being present while driving something fairly responsible - priceless!

Essentially yes, the same car. The BRZ comes with more std features, the nav. system with all the neat connectivity and HID headlights.

The front bumper cover on the FR-S is pretty cool, though the BRZ's is perhaps bolder...

Supposedly the suspension tune is a bit different, but one magazine said they couldn't make out any appreciable differences...

It would be interesting to drive both just to see if you could tell..
