I also think that the BRZ is way overpriced. Increase the HP by at least 50 and reduce the price to about 25k and it will be a very popular car.

I even think 25k is too expensive. Just 5k more and you get a base Z. If you are good at haggling then you can probably get one with sport for 5k more.

if it was 20k for the current BRZ/FRS, then that would be considered reasonable for me.

No **** given here either. I'd rather buy another genesis coupe, but it's a long shot of that happening again.

The 3.8 is a good car. The 2.0??? Well they never got that right, unfortunately. Don't mind Kenchan. He's just racist toward Korean cars. Lol.

Now that we see subie is doing good business. Lets see if they can get at least 240 Hp and 195lbs tq. Put a better wheel and tire pkg and can they finally get some brembos or something? Leave the price the same though. They overcharged by a few grand.
The frs should have originally started at $22,000 and the Subaru @ $23,200. Optioned upto the auto should have gone for $25,000 frs and $27,000 subie.
You can option out a brz out to $31,750.
It doesn't get more laughable than that!!!

And yes, I said it. The 3.8 version of the genesis coupe has been fairly reliable, drives sporty enough for it's core market & is an amenity rich vehicle. Most complaints have been on the 2.0.
Can it stand next to a Z? Hell no!!! But it was NEVER intended to. Is it better than the G37? No, it's still a low end version of it. But it's a good value for it's $33,000 price on it's track/ultimate model.

I would take a loaded V6 Genesis coupe with AT for a daily driver type of car.
