Subaru BRZ
The Subaru BRZ is a rare breed: a lightweight, rear-wheel-drive coupe powered by a naturally aspirated Boxer engine. Built on a dedicated low-slung platform, the BRZ has one of the lowest centers of gravity of any production car. That translates into telepathic handling – you feel every corner, every weight shift. The 2.4L engine produces 228 horsepower, enough to hit 60 mph in 5.4 seconds, but the real joy is the manual transmission (six-speed) and perfect chassis balance.
Inside, the BRZ is driver-focused: supportive seats, a small-diameter steering wheel, and a simple, uncluttered dashboard. While it's not practical for a family, it's an honest sports car for those who love the thrill of driving. Track-ready features include a limited-slip differential and aluminum suspension components. For 2026, the BRZ tS adds performance dampers and Brembo brakes.
