Anyone have a 2013 Subaru BRZ?

In over 3 years when the Subaru's manufacturer's warranty has run out and the Toyota still has 2 years left....? Not so sure about that.

Edit: Just read Subaru have extended the BRZ warranty to 5 years. Wise decision.

A gt86/brz can't be much to insure with there not being that many on the road, it being quite new and not many being written off

Yet
 
Drove one GET ONE

Carl_Bennetts thats it ??? I pay 600f for my DC2 with 10 years of NCB :D
 
I have a test drive booked for a GT86 this weekend :)

It will be my second car, I've had a Zetec S for the last 3 years - no accidents, I've also driven 20,000 miles in the US in the last year and again no accidents so feeling confident about buying something a bit more powerful/cool.

I am really struggling with colours though; I do like a bright colour and personally think the Orange looks great - just wondering if it will dull/fade over a few years?

<trollmode>powerful?</trollmode>

I think they look good in most colours, personally it would be the orange for the Gt86 or blue for the brz.

Well, for me powerful coming from a 1.6 Fiesta! I'm not much of a petrol head though so under the bonnet is not so important - this seems like a fun drive and it looks good.

A 370Z was very high on my want list, but the cost of running it just too much on top - the insurance was also double the quote I had for the GT86!

Had a nose at a BRZ today the that blue, looked lovely.

Still not a fan of the wheels though

They're actually a nicely designed wheel. It's the combination of colour that ruins them:

Got my GT86 two weeks ago and coming from something with only 100bhp to this is a power upgrade. When I had my test drives I wasn't really sold on the car, yes it felt quick and went round corners well but it didn't feel like something I wanted to live with.

Bought it anyway and I don't regret it at all. Much better living with it than borrowing a dealer's one for 30 minutes a time.

Is advising a 21yr old who just passed his test to get a brand new relatively powerful RWD car with tyres designed to break traction a good idea? :D

Looks better in blue then I thought, but that Orange still calls my name!

You got any more pics, did you go with base model or get the upgraded seats/sat nav/rear parking or anything?
 
Packaging difficulties is a lie plain and simple.

MRT Australia are currently building BRZ with a supercharger and turbo charger... fits nicely :D
