I'm on the Fence | 2022 Subaru BRZ Sport tech Manual

[@alirezapq4214]

Great review! Pretty shocked u dont have a lot of subs. Keep it up!

[@Neutralreviews]

Hey thanks!! Comments like this help because sometimes I get down in the dumps thinking I should pack it in and quit lol. Thankfully we are getting decent views and a couple manufactures are now recognizing the show!! Starting soon I will be getting more relevant content so hopefully that will help. I’m really loving doing it and very grateful for people watching❤️

Dump the fake engine sound thing and put the savings into something that actually makes a difference in performance or function. Also dump the digital gauge cluster and put analog instruments. They are cooler and simpler.

Enjoyed the comparo. Hope you get more subs! I bought my Gen 1 BRZ as a “rebuilt” title. It’s my favorite car. Sold my Porsche to buy the MK 8 Golf R manual for a daily for less than MSRP. Now I have cars with usable limits.

[@Neutralreviews]

Thanks you! I love the R! I was very happy the week I got to review it! So fast for what it is, but my favourite part is how you can really dress it up or down. Not to mention the practicality. One of the few cars I think I would trade my BRZ for.

[@colt2206]

Think the rear seats are clever. It reduces insurance rates and gives you room for two small dog carriers which I definitely have to have for my Yorkies. Plus it is a good storage area so you can at least carry small bags

Good points .

[@BeastMode1210]

getting gapped by a minivan as you're talking about the imprived power is priceless

U r bang on ! I have the 2020 sport tec (Brembo) Brz and tested drive the gen 2. The steering feel isn’t as good as gen 1. However, I pulled pin to trade in my gen 1 and ordered the gen 2 which arrive next week. I’m still on the fence if I should commit to it .. there’s no penalty if I back out. 😢

[@Neutralreviews]

I know right! I literally change my mind every week lol. I told my salesperson that if they offer a similar package to ours I’ll order but otherwise stick with mine. That said, I obviously love the new one and think I should just make my own “RS”…ask me next week 🤣 I think we will be happy either way

[@ke1684]

@@Neutralreviews lol. tell me what I should do … the car should b here next week.

[@Neutralreviews]

@@ke1684 My gut tells me to wait for myself because I feel like I’m overpaying for what I already basically have. I love the new look/aero/real side vents and some actual quickness without the need to modify. Plus I like being back under warranty and having no scratches or dings lol, but I don’t like my payment going way up for a better look. Ours has almost as good of a platform with all the refinements made year after year, plus we have wider tires, Brembos, SACHS, etc, and a different final gear ratio than all the FRS’s most reviewers still reference. I felt ours handles better, brakes better,sounds better and communicates better. I think I’m going to tune mine and let it breathe a bit better which should get me close to the gen 2 quickness:)

[@ke1684]

@@Neutralreviewsall those qualities u mentioned, only an experienced gen 1 owner would notice and appreciate it. I’ll keep u posted on my move :)

@@ke1684 so what did you do

[@billisdewillis5]

Too bad the GR86 didn’t get the G16E-GTS motor from Toyota…would have been killer.

[@Neutralreviews]

I’m happy with the power but it sounds rough and it would be nice to have a different engine that was more like it

[@galuhrichata6148]

Man, you talk almost as fast as that guy in the auctions…😅😅 Good review, Bro…

[@Neutralreviews]

[@t.k.morris]

Any experience with hood shake/flutter at highway speeds?

[@Neutralreviews]

Good question. Not on my 2020 or the actual 2022 from the video. I also tested (no vid unfortunately) a 2022 GR86 and it was ok. Side note, I have an RS but it can feel sketchy at higher speeds whereas all the 22’s seem way more stable…assuming the new aero works

[@joeyschmoey9138]

Thank you for the review, the most Canadian version I have heard. So you would choose the 86 because of the looks? I am deciding between the two.

[@Neutralreviews]

@@joeyschmoey9138 Thanks! And I do think the Toyota is better looking but now after seeing more of both on the road I’m on the fence lol…I don’t find the front of the GR has as much presence as the pictures but that said I’m a sucker for the duck tail spoiler. I do think though if Subaru had made it more of an “STI” look to match that of the “GR” I’d gravitate to it. If you can get your hands on either you’ll be happy. I drove a GR86 and really didn’t notice a difference. Good luck:)

[@macula_]

Great review man, very useful and neutral I guess lol

[@Neutralreviews]

🙃

[@oldpanucho6401]

Nice compare, love the shoes !

[@Neutralreviews]

I wore them once just because and since then they seam to memorable so I keep wearing them lol. And thanks!

[@jayjaysan4955]

The NISSAN Z came out after the GR86.

[@OpT1c_NRG]

Very nice. So were you trying to convince yourself or someone else? 😉

[@Neutralreviews]

🤣

[@boboutelama5748]

Can this car tow ?

[@Neutralreviews]

Good question!! Not sure if anyone knows…

[@andresmeza4501]

Max may be 880lbs

[@moldyrefrigerator]

No. I have a '23 BRZ, the instruction manual says to do not tow anything with it.
