I will say dealer markups are price gouging and should be illegal. I tried to test drive a 22 civic SI yesterday and not only was the dealer not allowing test drives, they added a 6k markup on top of MSRP. So a 32k car is now 38 and out the door is over 40k. That's ridiculous

Oh I've experienced worse. Tried to test drive the Supra last year, and the dealer was like: "Let's run your credit and discuss price first. Once you decide to buy the car, you may feel free to test drive it." How the fxxk is that a test drive if I already bought the car?!

I love my BRZ! I bought in February and have hardly driven until recently because of the summer-rated tires. I have the "limited" version, which in Canada is called "sport tech" (no idea why there is a different name for it). It puts a smile on my face every time i drive it. This car is not about absolute speed, but travelling on twisty roads, or the rare traffic circle we have here. So much fun!

Convenient timing for this to pop up in my recommended; I JUST got home from the Subaru dealership and placing my order for a manual BRZ Limited. First car I've ever bought, been driving my dad's old Tundras for the past decade. Was originally gonna go for the GR86, but the Toyota dealerships here refused to let me place an order for one saying I just have to get lucky that one would come in and that it was extremely unlikely for a manual version to come in sooooo to Subaru I went.

Did you order a 2022 or a 2023? I even contacted Subaru directly TWICE as the dealers are clueless and they said the 2023 hasn't been "approved" for sale yet. Seems odd. One Subaru rep said the BRZ is having issues passing emissions and not sure when the 2023 will be released if at all. Yeah lady, they spent money to design a car only for a 2022. LOL We are waiting to order a 2023 as soon as we can. :) Grats on your purchase!

@@xSikks But maybe you should have kept it plugged, since the last gen model did not have any fake engine sound. There was a sound pipe that physically amplified the engine sound from the engine bay. The sound coming from the pipe was 100% real. The new gen model (2022 onwards) are the ones that actually have fake engine sound emitted from speakers. In fact the sound emitted does not sound like an engine at all. It seems like some sine waves were combined to create a new noise to simulate engine noise. The end result sounds terrible.

After several autocross events I'm ecstatic with my BRZ. I added the front camber bolts and 245/40R17 Falken RT660s and the grip limits on-course is amazing. I also did an event on the Primacy tires and it was a nice exercise in car control, perhaps even more fun than on the Falkens. I didn't care about the 18 inch wheels on the Limited since I run 17s for autocross.

The BRZ or GT86 here would cost around $40k~$45k when paid in cash, and around $50k~55$k when paid in terms. Hopeful to even buy the older model used, because I truly love this car. Watched your old videos also back then, and I hope to buy one soon.

The allotment to my local dealership was only for ONE automatic, zero manuals. I will try to remember to update in two weeks, after they get the next allotment.

If you see one driving around Novi, give me a wave or flag me down for a chat! I also removed the clutch helper spring as I really enjoyed my 13’ BRZ much more with it removed. I also adjusted the clutch travel to have less dead travel prior to the engagement point (it now sits slightly above the brake pedal), have you tried this? Took about 5 minutes, it feels a lot more natural to me now, and I wish I had done this to my BRZ while I had it. I’d be curious to hear your thoughts.

Unfortunately I couldn’t deal with the stiff suspension and manual trans for daily driving, it just became a headache for me.

Thanks for the extended insight! I'd be happy to see you make more videos on it. I have one question if you don't mind: Are the mode settings sticky? Does it stay in sports mode after you turn off the car? Same with traction control and lane keeping assist. It is one of the main things that annoy me about modern cars. Having to configure things every time the car is started. It's what makes me think to get a base model as it hopefully comes with less. Though it might be different in Australia. The Type R came with lane keeping and other annoyances in AU when it didn't yet in other countries. PS: I did watch your Type R videos many many times. And when I got to a point of being able to buy one they stopped making them. I'm hopying to have more success with the new GR86 once it makes it to AU.

Different classes of cars so not directly comparable. Also they provide different experience. M2 offers more of everything except perhaps pure connection between driver and the car. Which might be the reason itself to go BRZ/gr86. Keep in mind, M2 will be significantly more expensive over the long run. If your finances allow for it, go m2, but since you're asking this particular question, I think you would be better of with BRZ/gr86. You want to own the car. You don't want the car to own you.

Thanks for the night drive and test of the adaptable headlights. Do you know if they adapt for hills? I have the '17 and I think they went to a single illumination source with an "eye lid" type shroud that drops down over the top half of the light source to make the low beams. They have a brutally sharp horizontal cut off across the entire beam spread and are bizarre on hills. (Some engineers somewhere should be slapped for this design.)

That’s a great question, I don’t have many hills to test on but I don’t think they do.

@@2qwik4u Thanks! Just to be clear, you have the '22 Limited? (So they kept the "eyelid" for vertical, but added horizontal movement? Wow! Can't believe more people have not complained about the eyelid situation. Going down a rolling down hill, the top section of the hill just vanishes, creating a weird illusion.)

Agree on the steering. Apparently the rack is very slightly slower (13.5 v 13.0) but it feels like they’ve upped the assistance a bit too. It’s like they’ve been influenced by the ND Miata. It’s accurate enough and probably makes the car feel a bit more “chuckable”, but it’s lost quite a bit of feel (maybe any feel) in my opinion. Probably the only thing that I think the new model has gone slightly backwards on. Agree with the knee pad! The voice command initiation is from the steering wheel button. I accidentally knock it all the time too.

I wish the WRX got all the sporty tech from this car, I guess it really shows the wrx is not supposed to be a true sports car. I like my analog gauges but all those other features are neat, and the shift light is cool too.

I swear the Japanese just don't do good fake engine noise. I mean I'm not for them, but at leat the Germans make their soundaktors sound good. The new Civic Si and this BRZ soundaktors make it sound so much worse than just real engine noise. Its like they took a 4-cylinder sound, made it sound fartier, and threw the sound file into a speaker and called it quits.

I couldn't hear it in your video, but are you experiencing any sort of out of the norm transmission noise with your BRZ? When I depress the clutch in mine, I occasionally get a metallic rattling noise. It also makes some interesting noises if I'm coasting at 1700-2100 RPM with no throttle input.

You mentioned moving the lower bolt of the front knuckle into the top hole and installing a camber bolt in the lower hole. Are you at all concerned about this? Surely the bolt size was chosen for a reason by subaru, is the smaller diameter safe?

Im glad you said "Australia comes with a spare (tyre/tire)" because I was wondering why I sometimes saw a spare sitting in the middle of the boot/trunk in some videos and not others. Since im in Australia mine will obviously come with a spare (full size actually).. I wonder if I can pull it out and put in the repair kit instead to utilise more boot/truck space?
