The morning of our test drive dawns sunny and cold. The remnants of a late…

Choose the right tool | 2017 Subaru BRZ Performance Package Second Drive

There’s something to be said for using the right tool for the job. It’s not always possible, but you know that when you whip out the Vise Grips, deep down inside, it just feels wrong. There’s satisfaction, joy, even dignity in using the proper instrument to execute a task accurately on the first try.

Our attempt to wield the updated 2017 Subaru BRZon Fuji Speedway last year were…
