Subaru Brz

We’ve seen some crazy customized cars in our day, but this 2014 Subaru BRZ up for sale on Cars and Bids is one of the coolest. The car has had its four-cylinder boxer engine replaced with a 6.3-liter V8 engine from a C5 Corvette Z06.

The 2022 Subaru BRZ is almost exactly what the enthusiasts wanted – keep the purity, increase the power, and focus on handling. The redesigned car has a new 2.4-liter naturally-aspirated Subaru BOXER engine that makes 228 horsepower and 184 pound-foot of torque – the outgoing BRZ maxes out at 205 hp and 156 lb-ft of torque.

A new report that surfaced at Motor Trend is making the rounds claiming Subaru Japan will no longer take new orders for the BRZ. The first instinct for some fans will be to lament that another rear-wheel-drive sports coupe is going the way of the dodo.

While both the Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 look great and handle well, they’ve both been criticized for their engine performance, and lack of updates since their release back in 2012. In a recent interview with Road & Track, Subaru confirmed that there is a next-generation BRZ in the works.

Subaru has stopped teasing the upcoming special editions of the WRX STi and BRZ, and has given up lots of details. What we do know is that the want is strong with both the WRX STI Type RA and the BRZ tS.

I’m pretty sure Subaru is trolling all the BRZ fans out there who have been clamoring for a proper STI version of the car. The normal BRZ has a scant 200 hp four under the hood, but it handles like a dream.

Subaru has unveiled a special edition BRZ for the 2017 model year called the BRZ Series.Yellow. The car gets an exclusive yellow exterior color along with an interior in black with yellow accents. The car is also fitted with the Brembo brake package and Sachs performance shocks.

Saying that a car is getting a power bump for a new model year gets enthusiasts excited. When the details come out and you tell us that power bump is 5hp and 5 lb-ft. of torque, it’s really just an insult.

A group of researchers from Mississippi State University has taken a Subaru BRZ and turned it into a unique hybrid test bed. The car is dubbed the “Car of the Future” and is a plug-in hybrid that uses a battery pack with 12.7 kWh of power.

Though it may not be the most original hue chosen for special edition cars, Subaru is coloring their BRZ and WRX STI similar to the Volvo Polestar cars and calling them The Series.Hyperblue because a cool color absolutely requires a cool name with no spaces.

When we first saw the Subaru BRZ, we all said. “That’s an awesome car, and such a great platform. The STI is going to be off the hook” (Because we’re all aliens that learned English via Arrested Development and we think people actually say “off the hook.”)

We’ve all been clamoring for a Subaru BRZ STI since we all initially calmed down after first seeing and driving the BRZ. It’s a great car on an incredible chassis that is crying out for more performance.
