Thread: Toyota FT-86 / Subaru BRZ: Japanese (not Siamese) Twins

I'm curious to know what you think about the Porsche Cayman then...40% of it's underpinnings are derived from the Boxter and Carrera 997, but by your logic there isnt anything "special" about this either

and writer's review note the Cayman to give you one of the best driving experiences from a production vehicle...but what do these "writer's" know!

there you go about the same power as a 10:1 sr20 with s4's.... yet this was made 20 years later...

no im just talking shit, im sure its a good platform. looking foward to what guys do with it.

stratton.

I have and I don't. It is a great car also... but again there isn't anything "special".

You are comparing apples and oranges. Writers and you are throwing this word around and not thinking of the definition. What makes the BRZ special? Low CG? Been done many times before. Good handling with low power? Been done many times before. Good looking car? Been done many times before. IMO there isn't anything ground breaking or special about it...

Plus I don't think the writer's know anything... I've been used as a source multiple times.

Wow, didn't know these were shipping

I thought you would be all over it with dyno numbers like that

There has been one in Plano for like a month or something. I didn't even bother to go look at it and the dealership that got it in is a 5 minute walk away.

what make's the BRZ/FRS/86 special is that you wont find majority of these aspects on a car that's under $50k...maybe the EVO/STi as an exception, and hence the reason it's being praised so highly.

Lol at that. That isn't special. Like I said before, but you ignore... It is a good car and will perform well.... So it should get great reviews.

NC Miata to name another one, Genesis to name another....
