5 reasons to buy the 2015 Subaru BRZ
1. Fun driving experience
The 2015 BRZ offers a driving experience focused on precision over sheer power. The well-tuned chassis keeps the car stable, while responsive steering and athletic driving elements provide a thrilling ride. You’ll find yourself taking the long way home just so you can push the 2015 Subaru BRZ through the curves.
2. Plenty of driver-assistance features
If want a ton of standard features, the 2015 Subaru BRZ has you covered. You'll find a heated front driver's seat and passenger seat which is oh-so-appreciated in cold temps or if you want some relief from aches and pains after a long day. You’ll also get automatic bi-xenon headlights, LED running lights, keyless entry, cruise control, full power accessories, and a tilt-and-telescoping leather-wrapped steering wheel. The next trim level up, the Limited, has foglamps, keyless ignition and entry, a rear spoiler, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a weather package that features heated seats and mirrors.
3. Great responsiveness
The manual transmission in the 2015 Subaru BRZ offers an engaging drive built with car enthusiasts in mind. It's lightweight, agile, and easy to drive. The handling is so responsive, you might think the car is telepathic. Precise steering and sharp handling mean you'll be looking for the long way home
4. You want an eye-catching car
The 2015 Subaru BRZ is a handsome sports car available in six exterior colors — keep a sharp eye out for the Series.Blue model — just 1,000 were released in the United States. This trim includes all of the features on the Limited trim alongside aero body styling tweaks, black wheels, red brake calipers, and interior accent stitching packaged in a black-and-blue interior. Even if you can't find one of these models, you'll love that every trim of the 2015 Subaru BRZ has a low-slung profile with sporty design accents.
5. Sporty engine
The rear-wheel-drive vehicle has a 2.0L horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine. It churns out 200 hp and 151 lb-ft of torque. With the manual transmission, it can go from zero to 60 mph in 6.8 seconds. With the optional automatic transmission (with rev-matched downshifts) it can go from zero to 60 mph in 7.9 seconds. The Series.Blue trim is manual only so keep that in mind if you don’t drive stick.
