Scion FR-S & Subaru BRZ!





What more could you want! An inexpensive sporty car that is mid engine, rear-wheel drive and features a 2.0-liter horizontally opposed "boxer" four-cylinder engine that produces 200 hp and 151 pound-feet of torque.A six-speed manual transmission is standard and a six-speed automatic with steering wheel shift paddles and rev-matched downshifts is optional.

In an Edmunds performance test, a manual-equipped BRZ went from zero to 60 mph in 7.3 seconds. EPA-estimated fuel economy is 22 mpg city/30 mpg highway and 25 mpg combined with the manual and an excellent 25/34/28 with the automatic.

A turbo model may be available under the Subaru name in the future. The BRZ is starting at 25k and 27k for the limited with more bells and whistles, but who cares I would like it light as possible as curb weight is already 2700lbs.
