Agreed. Nissan is budget performance retarded right now. They only care about the folks who can drop $35k-$80k on a sports car. I love GT-Rs and 370Zs, but they just won't be occupying my garage any time soon.

What is BRZ, anyway? Is it supposed to be "Breeze" or something?

I like every-single-thing besides those taillights.

Oh yeah, and obviously it requires a manual tranny. Duh. Why would they even display the auto-tragic version of a sports car? Double duh.
