“Breezie”, the Subaru BRZ
The BRZ is fun to drive, hugs the road well, and feels safe. It looks and feels fast even if really isn’t that fast having only a 4 cylinder and a non-turbo engine. The 6 speed manual transmission requires a lot of shifting, which is fun to do on rural highways, but can get old & laborious in urban traffic. The BRZ is economical to purchase, drive & maintain; thus it fulfills an important niche in the sports car market.

Fits like a glove
I have always been attracted to unique cars - 64-1/2 Mustang Cpe, Mazda Rotary Cpe, TR-6, Mitsubishi Turbo Cpe. The BRZ had me hooked from the time I saw the blue paint and first sat in the drivers seat. The smile on my faced broadened to a grin. After adjusting the telescopic steering wheel and seat rake - but wish it had adj lumbar support, the test drive began with the push of a button and the pleasant rumble of the Boxer engine. Not looking for turbo or V8 power, I have been pleased with the ride, the stability and simply the feeling of being one with the BRZ. The short-throw 6M and brakes are easily controlled. It checked all my boxes - great looks, fun to drive, economical, navigation and the right price. My BRZ has taken 50 years off my life and I look forward to many years behind the wheel rowing the 6M on country roads with my wife as navigator.

2018 50th Anniversary BRZ SUCS
I am sitting in the dealer for the 5th time due to issues with the head unit. After replacing the head unit, I'm now told my amp is bad. That does not explain why my phone doesn't work with the new head unit and the new software update. The car has 6800 miles on it and I do NOT trust it. Apparently Subaru does not test anything. Update: The car has 6800 miles and its been in the shop 5 times for warranty work. Subaru can't/WON'T fix the head unit. Finally after threatening to invoke the Lemon Law, my infotainment unit was deemed to be broken. The new unit was expedited and replaced in 8 days-a record for Subaru. However, it was NEVER tested and I had to return the car after being told I was too stupid to sync my phone to the car. Trip #4 took 2 days before they decided the newly replaced unit was bad and my Amp was also bad. I was told it would take 1-2weeks to get the parts but I could come get my unsafe car and drive it while waiting for parts. I refused and they managed to get the parts in less than a week. Unfortunately I have been out of town so I don't know if they fixed it or not. I will find out tomorrow. The 2019 Outback they provided as a loaner displayed weird things on its ibfotainment system. The GPS gave me an error -saying that no Vocal module existed in this country for the NAVIGATE TO command. GPS routinely took several minutes to load every time you started the car and it made a habit of sending me to the wtong location although I had the address entered. Despite the lawsuit on the 2018 infotainment units, Harmon Karmon still has NOT fixed their problems. Between the lousy customer service at Corporate and my local dealer and Subaru's FAILURE to address the numerous issues with the electronics on this car, I see NO REASON to buy another Subaru.

BRZ 41
a real driver's car. Very happy! I love its purity and unfiltered rawness. I am surely one of oldest persons at 81 who owns one of these cars. I takes me back To my MGB days in the 60‘s.
