The cheap rear-wheel drive sports car that everybody was waiting for has finally gotten its official pricing for the UK market. The Subaru BRZ will be available for purchase later this summer in Subaru dealerships all across the UK. It has already been praised for its poised handling, proper RWD chassis and sporty looks. It features a 2-liter naturally aspirated boxer engine which puts out 200-hp - adequate power as the car is also quite light.
The car is available in two trim levels: SE and SE Lux. In its base SE trim, with manual gearbox, the car will set you back £24.995 (€30.570). For an additional £1,500 (€1.830), you get a six-speed automatic gearbox with paddles, but we reckon that a car like this must have a manual gearbox, so save your money on that and instead go for the SE Lux trim which adds leather-clad and heated seats for the same £1,500 (€1.830). The car gets plenty of standard equipment such as 17-inch alloys, torque-sensing limited-slip differential, cruise control, dual zone air-con, six-speaker stereo system with iPod connectivity, pushbutton start and leather-wrapped steering wheel, handbrake lever and gear knob.
Complete with the automatic gearbox and the only two available options (Sat-nav and special paint finishes which together add another £1,500 (€1.830) to the car’s price tag, a fully-specced Subaru BRZ 2.0i SE Lux will set you back £29.495 (€36,077).
