As far as it being the "fastest car on the road", I didn't think it was 16 years ago, and it sure as hell isn't today. Its a great touring car for traveling long distances comfortably, but its not going to win many races.



If the BRZ/FRS had AWD and 300+ hp, it would be my perfect car.
I too don't consider the SVX a "Fast" car, but more like a "Quick" one, I'm OK with the BRZ's power, but I've owned a few XT6's which have even less, but are fun cars....but finding a good XT6 is 10 times worse than finding a Nice SVX at this point.
