I've heard that Subaru is currently developing the BRZ STi. Should be interesting to say the least.

Still NA with mostly body mods and maybe a few extra NA hp it seems.

Aero I'm sure. The S2000 sure isn't the slipperiest car out there.

The distance created would be too far, who would want to keep going 130+ just so that thing came catch up seconds later lol

Right, if you aren't anywhere remotely close by the top of 5th gear (ap2 127~mph) I'm not going into 6th so you can see of you're faster waaaaaayyy the fck up top..

2014 BRZ convertible.
What do you guys think? I love convertibles so I'm not really bias to any roadster, but you think they'll compare this to an S2000 and will it handle the same? I saw videos on youtube of DEALERS still comparing the 370z to a retired S2000 and why you should buy a Z over an S2000. This looks more of a Miata rival to me.

I think it looks great.. My personal opinion, it's just under powered for the generation of cars that it came out with..

That convertible is more than likely going to be crap. Either heavy or structurally weak, maybe both.

I'd love to turbo the S and buy a frs for a dd when the used prices get sub 10k.
