The Subaru BRZ tS is Limited to 500 Units and Built for Track Days
Michael Hines — June 9, 2017 — Autos
Drivers who regularly track their cars seem to be who the all-new Subaru BRZ tS is targeting. The tS is a special edition version of the company's two-door sports car (the model was co-developed with Toyota) that is limited to just 500 units. Now the Subaru BRZ tS may look aggressive but under the hood the 2.0-liter boxer-four doesn't get any power upgrades. Instead, the company focused on improving the handling and downforce of the two-door.
Some of the additions that help reach those goals include an adjustable rear wing, stickier Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires, updated dampers front and back, Brembo brakes, and underspoilers to efficiently direct airflow. The Subaru BRZ tS will go on sale in early 2018 with no word yet on how much it'll cost.
