2017 Subaru BRZ Review

The Subaru BRZ has been around since 2013 and has soldiered on unchanged. That is, until the 2017 model year updates have taken hold, bringing a slightly revised face, a new gauge cluster, some minor suspension tuning, and some major engine work that brings, sadly, imperceptible changes. Still, the BRZ makes a solid case for itself as a great driver’s car.

I recently spent a week with the updated 2017 BRZ, driving like I would any normal daily driver. Trips to the grocery store, to church, to the mall, and hauling the wife and kiddo to the in-law’s house all took place. Using the BRZ in this manner revealed some telling negative attributes.

However, one trip around a curvy road in the cool of the night with the windows down uncovers the true purpose of this car – to drive. All the negativity falls away revealing a fun, easy-to-handle, machine built to put a smile on your face. Best of all, the BRZ is inexpensive. That character hasn’t changed despite the wide array of changes for 2017.
