BRZ - a good used buy ?
I was reading Autocar the other day about the sister Toyota car with a new 2.4 flat four non-turbo (the GR86 rather than GT86).
They were saying that the GT86 with the 2.0 is going to be a classic and the used prices are probably as low as they'll go.
I know the BRZ is the same car and isn't about power - anyone have much experience of running one?

Each to their own, but I never liked them.
Look like a Hyundai Coupe.
7.6 Seconds to 60?
Cant really work out where they fit in. Clearly not particularly sporty in the fast sense.
Sporty looking maybe? Fun to drive?
Must be fun when a teenager in his Fiesta ST leaves you for dead.

I had a vw up in cyprus , great fun , turned the ac off to get up hills , later found out they have speed and light cameras out there and two camera vans , pretty sure we found the top gear lake , but so much rain and a gravel road we could not get to it , slow speed off road , i managed to get two wheels in the air , no damage done and we got out deposit back at the end 😂

Last year I had the pleasure of driving a Vauxhall Adam 1.2 hire car.
F00k me that thing was fast, a girl in a Nissan Micra 1.0 was trying to give it the big licks but she was no match for the 85 ft-lb of torque under my right foot.

I often find that driving a crappy 1 litre rental , is more challenging as at 30 mph round a roundabout is on the limit of grip so you have more fun , cornering even when not speeding , is amusing, as i often find the locals in cyprus can’t keep up round a bend , there limit of driving can be in your boot then can’t keep up round a corner 😂😂 in cyprus there are now speed and traffic light cameras and two camera vans , in three months the locals managed 90, 000 offences 😂😂
