Love this car technically, but it looks fungly IMO. Reminds me of the...I barely want to say it...Hyundai Veloster? At least from the front.

I seem to remember S2ks having weak transmissions, at least with any considerable power behind them.

Gonna say this, first-hand encounter. Drove an S2000 that never went into 1st, HARD grind into 2nd, and the diff made all sorts of noise. Dunno what was done to it before, but facts are facts. And I remember my buddy (who has owned many s2000s) tell me the AP1 differentials were pure junk.

I'm sure it's not all, but back to this fugly BRZ lol

I'll be seeing a lot of these things around, I actually like it a lot..
the only thing that worries me is teenagers/the clueless trying to drift these things in traffic.
