Re: Video of the BRZ GT300

I know you guys are all having fun baiting each other. As a previous owner of 2 Jags (XK150 and XKE) and familiar with friends that own Audi's and Evo's, I'd never turn one down. Fantastic drives compared to the general population, and my Jags gave me less problems than many mainstream cars I've owned.
I think Subaru, and Toyota, are trying to offer an affordable entry platform. And by the video, showing the possibilities. Not everyone can afford a full blown WRX STI. I think they could have gone farther in simplifying the base features, and cost. If they haven't based it on the basic drive train and suspension platform of the upper end models, they are truly fools.
How many of us have upgraded our cars performance, handling and looks based on resale value, especially when we are young and cash poor? We paid as we go.
