I think the general consensus is that the handling is adequate, but in N/A form it feels lacking in power. The interior looks pretty nice and it's at a good price point, but could use some oompf. I'm curious to see if/when they release the STi version. I'm also wondering about the new 2013 Genesis Coupe 2.0T; they bumped the output to 270 hp.

Hey what do you guys think of the BRZ ? I know its not the most powerful car but I think it looks really nice. Saw one in the Subaru Dealership this past weekend. I think the fun factor would remind me a lot of when I had my GS-R but even better handling and a bit faster.
The scion one looks pretty nice too. Any thoughts ?

I've been trying to like it but it's simply missing that JDM elegance from previous epicness.

I keep seeing a FRS at my gym. Its black and I have to say it looks really nice. It catches my eye. For me the only appeal is its something new and that makes me want one, but I could never get ride of the S2000 for one. Its no S2K, and cannot replicate the overall feel, or performance of the S2000 stock. S2000 is truly one of the only cars I have ever driven that was fun to just cruise in. Subaru's, evo's, and maybe even the BRZ/FRS are only fun when being flogged.

Of course not. Not close but I think its one of the best looking cars for the price. Everything on the road is either a Sedan or SUV so this is a nice to see something that looks a little different and does not cost 40-50k
