YESS
Searching this to my wife.... From mexico
It’s great to see you incorporate your family into these reviews because some of us do have families and I like to see how booster seats fit in these cars.
So true. Gotta convince the lady it's a family car nahmean?? 😁
Yes I agree! I want to see how I can get the family involved in a nice car
@@MajorAddiction Nahmean said that she is staying at her cousin place for a while.
Wife: you can’t get a GR86. A seat won’t fit!
Dads everywhere: *shows video*
A love these reviews. They have so much chemistry. It’s a joy to watch.
I am glad you started your own channel and including your family is awesome. I am looking to buy a GR86 and i have a kid as well. I think you pretty much answer my questions... Thank Muzio family
Yes a positive rate of climb is always appreciated. I like the look of the GR86 better tho. Impressive how well this thing can handle a car seat.
Nice review. I owned a '13...I believe that was the 1st year. It did have some serious quality issues but it was a fun car and I loved it. I didn't have it too long but I long to own another one one day. Perhaps once this newer version gets a little more mature, I'll buy another one. Great cars, driver's cars.
Love your content man, hope you become a 2 million channel one day
Love Alien headbands should be mandatory on public roads :) They would fix road rage. Little Sweetie's C8 review was amazing! Love the BRZ. Good for Subaru for making the investment in a shrinking segment.
What a amusing review! This is helpful for my family usability. Sibling, Gr86 is coming soon in South Korea.
Finally a good review that see is the car can "family" it. keep up the good work Micah!
Thank you, Stephen!
Great work and kudos for intergrating your family into your passion. Blessed man
Subbed
Thanks for the kind words. Cheers!
@@MicahMuzio Liked your previous work before but love the independent work your doing now. Congrats and I wish you great success. VTEC for life brother
dang! thanks for doing this video content, I was planning to buy one and use it for daily drive and driving with my wife and a 5 yrs old son and 2 yrs old daughter with it....
Awkwardly jabby - the best description I have heard in a car review! Fun and enjoyable honest review. Cheers.
My daughter has been everywhere with me in one of these since she was 3. I could fit a mountain buggy in the boot too. She’s older now but still loves going driving together.
How old is she now? Can she go in the the rear at 7 or 8 years old? Below the codriver of course
@@alamos8 yep still do, except nowadays she either sits cross legged in the rear (if the front passenger seat is occupied), or sits up front next to me.
I still use aux input and I really like that Subaru has kept putting it in their new cars.
WOW ， Realy nice video and lovely family!
What an absolutely wonderful video! Subbed!
We’re grateful to have you aboard. Cheers!
Love family review
Aux jack crew represent ✊
I like seeing how the back seat can be functional for kids in a front facing search. I actually asked a few dealers near me about these this weekend and they are all spoken for and Subaru is not taking any more orders right now. I also called my local Toyota dealer and they said the wait list is a year right now.
I was able to order one 2 days ago ! try now!
I thought it was funny Micah tried to fit in the back seat. I can't see myself having one of these and some 6 foot guy sitting in the backseat. 😂
Thumbs up for the family interaction.
I saw this car in person and I have to admit it does looks GREAT ! I have 2017 Toyota 86
Nice video y’all!
Thank you kindly, Ryan!
AUX in is a highly recommended way to play higher quality music. Awesome that this has one. Just waiting on mine to come in.
Looking forward when you guys review the new WRX!
I gave this video A like because your daughter said the car felt like a spaceship. Super cute
Your daughter is so cute hahaha happy family!👍🏻
So close to the windowless white van review... I'm so excited!
I love that we have folks like you who have been along for the journey with us. Cheers!!
@@MicahMuzio i have been waiting as well! I hope you reveal what the next milestone will be in that video too.
Great review.
When will you do a Bronco update?
Excellent review! My car is arriving the dealership this week and I also have a daughter to fit in the back seats, may I ask what make and model is the one you used in the video please?
Hi Micah, I am over here from Mover's channel after seeing you ate Heli Ex. Cheers mate.
Only thing I didn't like about this video is it did not convince my significant other that we should get one! lol otherwise I love you guys!
5k more subs to that windowless white van! Can’t wait to see which model it is, and if it’s abduction friendly.
Patreon gang got it early 😎 watching for the second time
Lol I'm not even subscribed and I'm watching it at the same time as you.
@@scottibass he drops it on Fridays for patreon
Yes! I like an Aux input on a car radio. Bluetooth sounds like crap...along with the MP3 files it's meant to be used with.
I love this car so much
More explosions please!
The 2024 will have Eye Sight standard on manual. I am waiting on the 2024
Hey Micah. Great video! How's the sound system on the BRZ?
As a micah who is also a dad, I am 100% here for this content
That little Kid (Your daughter) is a Great reviewer.Yes the Aux in is good for my SonyWalkman
I like the aux input, as Subaru’s USB media option will only play out of the driver’s side front speaker in all MY2020+ models I’ve tried.
I do, because the 2014 Nissan Murano does not have Bluetooth Audio Streaming, except on the Top Trim. And I have an Bluetooth adapter plugged into the Aux Port.
I picked up my 22BRZ about a month ago. I agree with everything in the review. I have owned manual cars exclusively for 20+ years and the BRZ os just tricky to be smooth with. I actually just ordered a replacement clutch spring that is supposed to make the pedal slightly heavier but add more feel. Hopefully it smooths it out. I have the loaded limited model. I like the interior, bigger wheels, better tires, steering responsive headlights and better sound system. Its well worth the cost of the upgrade.
Should I buy one at my dealer , white limited 6sp for 31k+5k mark up plus tax tag title….. idk
@@DFPFTW Hell no. I paid MSRP. Limited 6mt after all taxes and fees I was out the door was $34,500
@@boost331 Jesus so I shouldn’t do any deal that’s not around your number ??!?
@@DFPFTW I mean taxes and fees vary. But I would not pay a blatant markup. I had to shop for about a month to find my deal. But I saved about 3-5k.
@@DFPFTW I can’t even get one to test drive here in the philly area. The mark up will go away before long. This is simply the 2nd version, they’ll sell this for years
Since we are close to the windowless white van review is there a specific van you are reviewing? Or will this be the first family comparison review? Express vs Transit vs ProMaster vs NV vs Sprinter? Transit Connect vs ProMaster City vs Metris?
Not sure if it's technically competition... it kind of is...? but I went with a 21 V6 Camaro. I couldn't wait 4 more months to get a BRZ... but I did want one.

The subaru front end looks like the "😂" emoji to me
Yes to the aux input. I just bought a new stereo head unit for my car and I insisted it had an aux input. Bluetooth is so unreliable. I've arrived at my destination many times before my phone synced with the car. Aux cable is infallible. Plus it's easy do have a passenger start playing stuff from their phone.
I alternate between the AUX-In and the CD player in my 2011 . . . and will miss them, as I am not a fancy phone or music player guy.
Yup. I use an aux in my Miata lol the sound is better quality than just Bluetooth I feel
I would just fold down the rear seats all the time and install a custom interior matching carpeted plywood board to separate the trunk area. I'm used to having only two seats in sports cars anyways...
YES! Since you asked for a response, I do use an auxiliary input in my 2015 Fiat 500 Abarth. I've got my old school iPod plugged into it and it gives me a nice alternative to to AM/FM/Sirius. I also occasionally use my CD player in that car. My 2021 Kia Telluride has neither an auxiliary input nor a CD player. I mean, how difficult is it to add an auxiliary input!?
I knew it!! Thanks for sharing your experience. Cheers!
Armrests? “You can have it awkwardly jab you though. Is that helpful?” 🤣
Temptingly close to be being passable for small family duty, but not quite. Great review!
What a perfect encapsulation of the BRZ. Cheers!
An SD card reader for music is much nicer than a CD player or aux. Then I can just keep a ton of music in the car at all times, without connecting my phone and manually starting music.
Whoa. I'd totally forgotten about SD card readers.
Are you not doing reviews with Kelly blue book anymore? Or is this just a side project? Sorry just bumped into this researching and was surprised to find you here lol
Micah’s wife and daughter is so cute. What a lucky dude.
The styling inside and out is well executed. A cute boy racer. However, Hamy is much cuter 💗 ✋😀
haha what's the point of hill assist if it releases before you engage the clutch? I mean sure it releases before the engagement, but what Michah describes seems to be way to early for it. Maybe I'm wrong!
I never use an AUX in. I never use a CD player either but my 2021 Crosstrek has them both haha.
I'd love to see a family review of a 230i
Nice review. How many years does the baby fit in the back?
I myself (1.72 m) fit in the resr opposite seat of a 2017 GT86 with another 1.72 m guy in front of me (seat displaced, but no weird seating for the front guy, not touching knees on glovebox). The only thing, is that GR86 glovebox is sticking out way more than the GT86 one, with that strange design, and that may compromise how much you can displace the seat without knees touching, compared with the old car. Someone pointed out to this in another video...
The look of it will age well
As a former 2013 FR-S owner, it seems Toyobaru improved everything that needed attention. Solid car. I owned an ND2 Miata as well and it just didn’t speak to me like the FR-S. I wonder if waiting for the Supra manual is worth the extra coin.
I would say it is worth waiting if you only want a 2 door coupe and not a REAL Supra. When I drove one it felt more like a BMW and nothing like a Toyota
@@fj60driver - exactly. It’s simply a Toyota wrapper on a z4. I owned a 2013 brz and now own a 2017. Once I can drive one (and verify that they didn’t ruin anything while they were fixing things), I’ll likely buy one. Not really a fan of the Supra’s design and an automatic is a non starter for me
@@fj60driver what does a toyota drive like vs BMW?
Miata is about a unique experience that you don't get with any other vehicle. It is a more personal car.
@@chrisx5127 I’ve now owned them all. FR-S, Supra A91 manual, ND2 Miata. The Supra was the best of them all by a significant margin. Engaging, fast, beautiful, and surprisingly rare. All were fun, but the Supra is definitely on a different level.
I feel like Subaru has a bunch of old Honda taillights in stock, because the back end of the BRZ reminds me of a '16 Honda Accord Coupe, and the WRX looks like a '12 Civic from behind. Can't unsee now.
...omg. It is a taillight styling trend. Many Japanese brands (toyota, nissan too) as well as other makes use the claw/c light design. Volvo uses the claw design too (they might have started it) . It emphasizes width and provides an elegant style. If you notice, light designs follow trends like other styling cues. And if it is successful for one brand, it quickly makes its way to other brands. It is not a Honda-only thing...even Honda emulates the hockey stick lights found on Volvo wagons and SUVs on their CR-V...
I was surprised the booster seat fit in the back! I am curious how the shifter in the manual Crosstrek compares to the BRZ or WRX. Yes, I know they are for different purposes, but it would be interesting since they come from Subaru. After watching your review, I can scratch this off my list of cars to get that would fit my growing boys. Your family's review is so applicable to all of us!
Why is there no manual in Outback?
Nice track throwbacks. No place for Gram & Gramps 🙀
LoL learning to drift in an S2k. That ain't easy.
I drive a 2000 ES 300 and I could only dream of having an AUX.
I actually do use aux in and a CD player regularly. My car is 8 and a half, but I’d still love to have both on a new car. Really like the BRZ and 86, so hopefully they’ll be in the mix whenever I replace my car. Thanks for a normal, non-track review!
I think the Toyota has a different rear suspension set up, indeed a carry over from the first gen. I like the higher trims because they get the better lights, but kind of prefer the base cloth seats. In AR, just seems to be no inventory of either the BRZ or GR86. My usual first question is RWD vs FWD, but if you are drive train neutral, then lots of competitors out there including the new Civic Si and Integra. A premium BRZ vs a base Nissan Z may get interesting, but wondering about the Z weight.
I believe the Z weighs 3586. It will be faster but move like a brick in comparison.
@@bearclaw5115 I always remember an old Chris Harris video of a Z, Cayman, and then new 86, the Z's weight was the problem. That said Harris did not mention the torque dip!
Rwd is always the better choice and more fun.
@@Pharaoh_The_Great Always thought that in the past, but the Type R, the new Golf R, the 2nd Gen (expensive) AMG 45 GLA/CLA.......not so easy to go and say RWD is always. I usually alternate, so RWD next time I think.
@michahMuzio
Can you please share how tall are all of you ?
Your daughter is bigger now. Awesome. Cute.
2:40 Confirmed, men always add an inch to body measurements.
My husband uses an Aux port.... because his car doesn't have the ability to play music over Bluetooth 🤣
I still like having a cd player in my 07 Jeep
Awesome. To bad the rest of us are now deprived of this opportunity. Kudos to those who received theirs, but for those who haven't ordered or missed all new allocations, luck has run out... 🍀
What do you mean? No more production?
@@flohh They are only going to get more available as time goes on.
Do you think it would fit a rear facing seat?
Definitely not. It almost does not fit a rear faving in a VW Scirocco (I have a Scirocco) and this is basically like a Golf 5/6 inside although lower. The front seat has to be waaay forward. I use a front facing child seat (and I prefer them also for security. I'm confident enought I would not drive into anything hard, but I'm not confident at all others don't drive hard into my rear)
Was that a subtle flex that you own a helicopter O_O
I use an aux all the time, and would like it in my new car
I knew you were out there! Time to order your BRZ. :)
Great young person kids sports car?
BR "Zed" you barbarian. 😉
😁
I'm stil worried about if me (1.72 m), my wife (1.64 m) and my daughter would fit (she is 6-year old now, currently 1.29 m, and she can legally use just an elevator at this height, but she will keep growing, and maybe with 11 years old she could be 1.60+ m, as she is above average since she was born, and with 13 she could be 1.65-1.70 m, and at those points I'm not sure). I know that I myself fit in the rear opposite seat of a Toyota GT86 2017, with anotjdr 1.72 m guy in front (seat displaced to the front). But... in another video of the GR86, I noticed the new glovebox is sticking forward quite a bit with that strange design, and that that makes significant less knee room for the codriver when displacing the seat to the front, comparing with a previous gen GT86. So I'm not sure, and here there will be no showroom units at all, if you order one, you will have to do it blindly (Spain).
NOTE: The 2024 model of the BRZ and GR86 "WILL" have the added safety features added to the manual transmission as well.
There is no way I could seriously put the word “family” in association with this car!
Somewhere in the continent,parents are watching this and trembling in loathing and despair.
But,as a starter or a sports car,it's pretty cool.
There's a poetry to your comment, Blair. Hi5!
I'm only here to support the windowless van review, lol
HALLO!! What about BMW 220 COUPE?? I think is more practical, better looking family coupe car!!!
Up your HP by another 100 because if I'm driving a sport car I would definitely prefer 300 plus or 400 HP.
But this is for a family with a kid in the back...
I'm happy to see the Aux jack in BRZ. I wish more cars had it. I still use my Zune HD and iPod Touch to listen to my purchased and downloaded music.
For those who don't know what downloaded music is, I have to say, it's a form of listening to music that doesn't need streaming, so when you own it, you really own it. You don't need to pay 10$ (x as many streaming services one may have) month for the rest of your life to listen to your favorite songs
Yes it would have plenty of room in back seat for my Yorkies. They would fit perfectly back there with room to spare.
Not fairing well in the armrest test is a disappointment for me. That is a level of comfort that I look for in every car I get in…
Awesome to see how the child seat fits! Was wondering if we were gonna need to change our car later this year! Guess not! ;)
Every car should have an AUX port, and a CD player.
How would the back seat be for say a 12 year old, with a 5' 6" person sitting in passenger seat?
It would suck
@@fj60driver Agree. The best use of the "back seat" is always down with stuff you need (long) in the trunk or with the seats up and stuff in the back seat (groceries). I like to think of the back seat as a way to keep items from sliding around and not a place for people... ever. Maybe dogs? Mine prefer the passenger seat to experience windows :)
@@dowroa the back seat on a car like that only helps with lowering your insurance cost and not much else
I fit a great Dane in my wrx and he was comfortable...not sure if I could say the same thing if I bought the BRZ (which I still wish I bought the BRZ)
@@K03sport 2022?
Saw hamster. Liked video.
Jokes aside how tall was your daughter in this video? And how much head clearance did she have in that seat? Looks like a lot. If I could get a child into this car until about age 4-ish that would be more than enough
does it require premium fuel?
It's recommended, yeah
