For Subaru fans, it must feel a bit like Christmas. Over the past few weeks, Subaru has been dropping information on its upcoming 2017 model lineup. Veteran followers of the automotive industry will know that when these information drops are a bit like breadcrumbs preceding the announcement of a firm release date, and that's very exciting news for us here at Royal Subaru. However, while Subaru is boasting a characteristically strong lineup of newly redesigned vehicles this year, one truly stands out from the pack: the 2017 Subaru BRZ.

Yes, despite its reputation for reliability, Subaru still has a deep passion for performance and it shows in every aspect of this redesigned 2017 BRZ. Stylistically, Subaru has gone for a characteristically aggressive poise, accented with LED head and tail lights and a pedestal-designed rear spoiler which increases the vehicle's stability through added downforce. Similarly, the vehicle's interior exudes an air of performance edginess, with its commanding 8-ball gearshift, matte-black racing pedal treatment, and red accent stitching appointing traditional motorsport seats. But as with any of Subaru's vehicles, this vehicle doesn't just look the part, and boasts plenty of bite to match its bark, so to speak. Equipped with the 2.0-liter Subaru Boxer engine, boasting 205 horsepower and 156 pound-feet of torque, the 2017 BRZ is plenty capable on both the road and the track, and truly excels at cornering responsively due in large part to its exceedingly low center of gravity.

With this competitive driver's car rounding out the top end of Subaru's 2017 model year lineup, Subaru has placed itself head and shoulders above the competition. Available in Premium and Limited trims, the 2017 Subaru BRZ will be hitting our showroom sometime this coming winter. However, if the video above has your foot itching for the gas pedal, visit us at Royal Subaru in Bloomington to schedule your test drive today!
