Yeah, this dude has never spent time behind the wheel of a nice sports car. Shit is sooooo fun.
Even a shitty sports car is a blast. I had a lot of fun in my manual BRZ.
A manual BRZ is far from a shitty sports car. Hell, it’s more agile than a lot of $100K+ ones.
A shitty sports car is like… an old Saturn Sky? Or older.
Oh I drove a Saturn sky and wrecked it. That car was fun but I was too young to properly gauge its quality.
You’re right, BRZs are excellent handlers. I just… hated the torque dip so much. I also didn’t like the boxer 4 it had; squeaky even in optimal conditions.
Yeah. They don’t sell it with a better engine because it would embarrrass more expensive cars, kinda like the Porsche boxster/cayman (which whispers handle better than the 911).
Old Miatas were like that too :(. Though I don’t know what Mazda's excuse is these days, as the Miata is their top sports car?
When I moved away after high school my parents sold the old Volvo station wagon I was driving, decided the newer Volvo wagon my mom had been driving would be what my younger siblings would drive, and with strong encouragement from my younger brother, my mom picked up a used Boxster thinking that she’d never have to do the carpool line again. This was after the dot-com bubble burst and there was a surplus of used Porsches for relatively cheap. Somehow they found one as an automatic transmission back then, but it was still the best car I’ve ever driven as far as the handling goes. I loved the GTI I bought later, but that Boxster was a different level. At the speed limit it was almost like the car was steering itself because it was so effortless, and it was easy to go double the posted speed limit without realizing it if there weren’t other cars around.
It really is. It's almost half as much fun as bombing down a winding forest road with no car traffic on a bicycle.
Between 250-400bhp depending on weight is the sweet spot IMO. I've got an old 996 and it's so much fun away from traffic.
I have an older 911 and that is just fun to drive. It's just a fancy go-kart. My little Grom is also a blast to ride.
