"The Subaru BRZ is a great driver's car. The rear-wheel drive set-up there are great treatment and it's affordable, too."

Subaru BRZ coupe

the Subaru BRZ is one of the best drivers cars that you can buy today. It shares a lot of components with the Toyota GT 86 and goes head-to-head with coupes like the Volkswagen Scirocco, Audi TT and Nissan 370Z. Convertible sports car like the Mazda MX-5 and Lotus Elise can also pure driving experience Subaru match

Subaru has not gone for elegant appearance or a rustling interior with the GT -. The kinds of things that you get with the Audi and Volkswagen. Instead, it has concentrated possible to providing the best driving experience and poured his efforts in crisp steering, a sporty six-speed manual and a balanced rear-wheel drive set-up that

All this makes driving the enormous fun car - , so much that it's hard, another model to be found on sale at this price today, as big a smile on your face is capable of on a curved road back from Putten

only there is a motor for available: a 197bhp 2.0-liter petrol. It is not the GT to make an enormously fast car, but that's not the point. The engine is fast enough to be interesting and the performance is at the top end of the speed range, so that the car comes alive when you drive it harder, which the brilliant handling adds.

The trim levels of the BRZ are almost as simple as you are limited to only two: SE and SE Lux Each model comes with automatic climate control, power windows and cruise control while SE Lux who like adds suede seats..

A six-speed automatic is also available and although it improves Subaru fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, it takes the edge off the purity of the driving experience. It is also more expensive than the manual, so there is not much of a case for it. Stick with the manual and the GT remains one of the most fun-to-drive cars on the market - and a very affordable one at that.

MPG, Rates & CO2 runs

3 / 5

high tuned engine reverses 36mpg

was excellent economy is not a priority when Subaru BRZ designed but 36.2mpg should be possible - relatively good when you consider the performance in Offer. In comparison, a 2.0-liter Mazda MX-5 can return 40.9mpg, while the lightweight 1.6 liter Lotus Elise (offers similar performance) to see an impressive 44.8mpg.

CO2 emissions of 181g / km mean road tax is charged at £ 225 per year quite expensive. A diesel VW Scirocco can manage 67.3mpg and has CO2 emissions low enough for £ 20-a-year road tax. The GT can be equipped with an automatic transmission, the economy increased to 39.8 mpg, while CO2 emissions mean of 164 g / km road tax for this model is cheaper, at £ 180 per year.

Low weight means the Subaru should be easy on tires and brakes, helping to keep maintenance costs in check. Although Subaru does not offer service plans for a fixed price, all vehicles come with a five-year / 100,000-mile warranty. It's better to get a Volkswagen or Audi as the guarantee, and fits the Toyota GT 86 of the cover.

motors, drive & Performance

4.8 / 5

to ride much more participation of an Audi TT as

the Subaru BRZ was designed light and fun to drive. It has excellent steering that inspires confidence in corners, while relatively narrow tires mean there is just enough grip for you easy to find the car's limits. The skinny tires you think the car in the corners can slide on a track with relative ease. Overall, the GT is more fun to drive than the Audi TT or VW Scirocco.

The 2.0-liter engine of the Subaru is from 0-62mph in just 7.6 seconds. The engine of the GT must be worked hard and it can be noisy, but the six-speed manual transmission feels sporty and fun -. Especially when combined with the shift light in the tachometer that flashes when it's time to change

The optional six ~~ POS = TRUNC automatic transmission has steering wheel paddles, so you take your hand off the non-Rad need to change gear. Installation of automatic dents power, but: 0-62mph takes 8.2 seconds and the top speed 140-130 mph reduced.

Interior & Comfort

2.9 / 5

Susupension is firm but GT is happy on the highway to drive

with stiff suspension and a relatively loud interior, the Subaru is not as comfortable for long distances, such as cars, such as the Volkswagen Scirocco and Audi TT. Its low fuel tank you also limited to about 0 miles between fill-ups.

The GT falls significantly behind the VW and Audi for interior quality, as they lack their soft-touch plastic and logical design. Although the interior could be done better, it feels at least sporty, with perfect control. The view is fine, thanks to thinner windscreen pillars and a good size mirror.

comfortable getting the driver's seat is easy as there is a decent amount of customization in both the steering wheel and seat. The front seats also have many served in place to keep during the high-speed corners.

practicality & trunk

2.2 / 5

The GT has less space in the cabin as almost all tailgates

Getting comfortable in the front seats is easy, thanks to a lot of leg and headroom. to get in the back is a different story and the two rear seats are really only suitable for children, and they come with two ISOFIX child seat mounts. If you plan to wear the rear passengers on a regular basis, the Volkswagen Scirroco makes much more sense.

With a 243-liter boot, the Subaru has 50 liters less boot than an Audi TT. The trunk opening is quite small and there is a big lip that makes it difficult to load heavy objects. The choice of optional Pioneer stereo amplifier eating in the trunk. Many owners keep empty the rear seats and useful additional storage space.

reliability and safety

4.6 / 5

Security and reliability levels should be high

Our 2015 driver current owner satisfaction survey not the Subaru BRZ feature, but the manufacturer has ranked 16th out of 33 manufacturers - a prior Toyota . The brand has also build both reliability and perceived quality, but owners marks it for high operating costs down. Reliability should also be helped that many of the parts of the GT were tried and tested on other models in the Subaru range.

Euro NCAP never tested the Subaru for security, even though the car comes with seven airbags, traction control and electronic stability control as standard.

price, price-performance ratio and options

4.3 / 5

low asking price means that the BRZ brilliant value

Standard equipment on the GT includes 17-inch alloy wheels and a limited slip differential for extra grip when coming out of corners , SE and SE Lux models are available, and the SE comes with keyless entry, push button start, automatic climate control, a USB port, a 12V plug and cruise control. Buyers can also include an optional Pioneer Navi fits choose, but it is expensive to use, to buy and confusing, which means it makes more sense an aftermarket unit to buy.

" at low speed, though, you might be wondering what all the fuss. the engine does not produce a maximum torque of 205 nm up to a heady 6,400rpm and with a little less than 4,000rpm on the clock, it feels rather flat. If you used to driving, say, a VW Golf GTI, this might come as a shock. "

"Clever weight reduction involves the use of high-strength material in the roof and the upper structure of the car mass further reduce -. and the use of thinner glass for the windshield and side windows "
