Chrysler, Chev or ford NOT named "Challenger/Charger, Viper, Corvette, Camaro, or Mustang..." You are NOT ready for this...You probably won't even understand.


Mazda drivers? You get it. WRX variant-Subaru drivers? You understand. Evo Pilots? Yup - you can relate...

Only thing I don't like? The wheels and skinny tires. Otherwise? Automotive bliss.

No ma'am...but your 300C isn't a soul-car...it's not a sports car/sporty car. :D

You are correct .... has same engine as the Charger, but more classy and not as "tin can sounding". Trust me....I drove the Dodger and Challengers first and decided I could go just as fast and furious, but in a little more comfort.

So, I challenge (no pun intended) you to say my 300C isn't hot!!! :slap:

So when I sold my Tiger 1A, only to buy a Sienna later, my "understanding" went with it?

Uh huh.

The car looks good, but performance is lacking to what else is out there in the same price range.

Depends how you measure performance.

I contend there isn't a better performing new car within 5K.

A V6 Mustang for the same price outperforms the BRZ in all performance aspects and only loses to the cool factor.

All aspects? Top speed? Steering feel? Braking performance and feel? Fun to drive? Lap times?

V6 Mustang Top Speed: 113*. BRZ 135
V6M Braking from 70mph: 152 Feet. BRZ 128.
*Electronically Limited (so as not to embarrass the GT maybe?)
Car and Driver numbers.

Oh - and the loaded V6 mustang $31k, BRZ 26K. :)


And - above all - remember I didn't include mustang owners (since about 2008) in the 'group of cars owners who probably won't understand why the BRZ is pretty cool.
