Default Interesting Video-911 S vs. Subaru BRZ

Check out the rear seat room of both vehicles at about 4 minutes and 20 seconds.

And, the high altitude 0-60 MPH times at 6 minutes and 25 seconds.

Very good review by two proper car guys. Pretty much agree with everything they say. If were 25 I'd already be spending my Sunday polishing that new Scooby.

I'm 30 and love my C2S 7MT. I had a 3 series BMW at 25.

Strange review. And while they're at it why not compare the 911S to a Suzuki Kizashi or a Hyundai Veloster... Why stop at a BRZ?

Heres another take on the BRZ/Toyota for those interested. Hardly contest for any 911 imho....but out in the world of youtube entertainment anything goes.

I thought it was a very interesting review. Any comparison limited to raw performance would miss the essential point re all around value for the $ that both cars provide. If raw performance (in a new car) is the goal, a Vette or GTR is the ticket (or many tickets more likely).

while the comparo is strange, i kinda see what they are saying.
I think its cool that its got a low COG boxer engine and how the boot is designed to fit 4 wheel/tires.

I really think they have a hit on their hands.

Just saw one on the road - not a bad effort but a bit boy-racer looking with the rear wing. Definitely take your mid life crisis upmarket!
