Found this....gives an idea of how big the back seat and trunk really are, and how you can carry 4 tires and tools like the car is designed to for track days.

yeah i found that it was some japanese article with a lot of dimensions and illistrations...that one is win


if i get one, back seats would probably get pulled pretty quick haha

Interesting comparison. 3rd gen is still one of my favorite looking cars of all time. Engine, not so much, but it did put out quite a bit more than the BRZ. BRZ/FRS will be a great car to base a spec series off of.

^nice post!

Look at it sitting next to the toyota. That really shows how incredibly small this car is.

[RooTBeeR]

yes, small is good!

[Maven]

Its pretty much the exact same size as a last gen RX7.

They go up for preorder for the first 86 cars tomorrow!

Scion has the price on their website at $24,930. Interested in what Subaru starts the BR-Z at. Subaru website is saying. "As you might expect of such a vehicle, the all-new Subaru BRZ will be built in extremely limited quantities. The rare driver lucky enough to own one will experience Subaru engineering distilled to its essence. If you want to be one of those drivers you'll need to move quickly." I really want one just cause it will be rare and a fun car to drive, but I could buy a lot more hp for 25 some thousand dollars.

A lot higher than everyone was thinking.. hell I just got road and track in the mail yesterday... and it says fr-s 22k, brz 25k..

now the frs is 25k+tax.. .brz will probably be around 27k+ + taxes

Would rather buy a v6 mustang and have 4grand extra in mod money.. that would outhandle and outrun a fr-s brz everday of the week

Suby website has the prize of the BR-Z at $24,495 for the premium and $27,495 for the limited model. Is anyone thinking about getting either a BR-Z or FR-S?
