Subaru BRZ
The BRZ sports coupe is available in two trim levels—base and Sport-tech. Each one can be specified with a six-speed manual or automatic transmission, as well as Subaru’s EyeSight safety system. With the second generation introduced last year, the engine under the hood now displaces 2.4 litres and generates 228 horsepower along with 184 lb-ft. of torque. The BRZ remains a RWD car and the two rear seats are pretty much just for show.
