Subaru BRZ
The BRZ remains the most affordable rear-wheel-drive sports car in Canada. Its naturally aspirated, 2.0-litre flat-four engine puts 205 horsepower to the ground through a six-speed manual or automatic transmission, the latter featuring paddle shifters on the steering wheel. For 2019, the BRZ adds a new rear wheel arch aero fin and fine-tuned rear suspension damping, as well as the latest version of Subaru's touchscreen infotainment system that is faster and smoother.
