The performance-focused 2024 Subaru BRZ tS made its Global Debut at Subiefest California on Sunday, July 23. The new trim level offers the best performance and handling capability in a BRZ ever thanks to STI-tuned suspension and a Brembo braking system. For the first time, EyeSight Driver Assist Technology is now standard on a Subaru model equipped with a manual transmission. With 2024 marking the return of the BRZ tS to the model line, this top trim level will be available nationwide at Subaru retailers early next year.
The BRZ tS comes equipped with STI-tuned front and rear Hitachi® dampers to maximize its light weight, ultra-low center of gravity and precision handling, resulting in greater flexibility and better control and stability. A high-performance Brembo braking system, including gold-painted 4-piston front calipers, gold-painted 2-piston rear calipers and larger pads and rotors, enhances stopping power, fade resistance and pedal feel. The BRZ tS also has 18-inch wheels mounted with 215/40 R18 Michelin Pilot® Sport 4 tires for superior grip and quicker turn-in.
Offered for the first time on any Subaru model with manual transmission is EyeSight Driver Assist Technology. The award-winning safety system includes Adaptive Cruise Control, Pre-Collision Braking System, Lane Departure and Sway Warning, and Lead Vehicle Start Alert. All 2024 Subaru BRZ models equipped with a manual transmission will include EyeSight as standard equipment.

1982 BRAT Camper
About the 1982 BRAT Camper:
San Francisco-based artist Jay Nelson took this incredibly clean 1982 Brat and turned it into a small camper with a pop-up. The interior space features sleeping for three, and the rising roof made from repurposed sails provide for some actually quite cozy living space. For those chilly nights, a small wood stove provides heat. While the 73hp motor manages to get the camper up to speed reasonably well, it is reported that the weight of the camper takes a quite expected toll on the brakes.
Specs: - 73hp 1.8L Subaru BOXER - Sleeping for three - Built in iron wood-burning stove - Camper shell made of wester red cedar

Ken Block's 2002 WRX STI Rally Car
About the Ken Block's 2002 WRX STI Rally Car:
Ken Block's 2002 WRX STI Rally Car. Build / Ownership Details:
2002 WRX built as a VSC customer car for privateer driver Bob Wall.
This was during the period when Prodrive was running Subaru Rally Team USA, and VSC was an independent rally shop. SOA did NOT pay to build or run this car—it was entirely owned by either Bob Wall or Ken Block for its history.
Car was built to Group N spec, rather than the later Open Class cars.
Competed in two events in 2003 SCCA ProRally season, owned and driven by Wall
Car was leased from Wall by VSC for Travis Pastrana to drive at 2004 Sno*Drift Rally. This was Pastrana’s first rally event; therefore this is the first rally car ever driven by Travis.
Wall then drove the car for the rest of the 2004 season and into 2005.
In mid-2005 the car was purchased from Bob Wall by Ken Block. Block would use the car for the remainder of the 2005 season, including Pikes Peak, with DC Shoes sponsorship and a white/gold urban camo livery.
In 2006 Ken did a full season in the car, including his first win, at 100 Acre Wood.
Ken also did a couple events in 2007 with it, but he and Travis had mostly moved over to the more developed Open Class entries by then.
With Ken owning the car outright, he was approached by Discovery Channel’s Stunt Junkies to do a record-setting jump stunt. The car cleared 171 feet after overshooting the landing. This was the record later broken by Travis with his 269-foot jump over Long Beach Harbor in 2009.

Airslayer STI: 2020 Subaru WRX STI Gymkhana Car
About the Airslayer STI: 2020 Subaru WRX STI Gymkhana Car:
The Gymkhana stunt-driving franchise has left its mark on automotive culture and has grown to 11 installments, with over 500 million views – and counting – on YouTube. The first 10 installments featured Ken Block behind the wheel of various vehicles, driving in locations such as San Francisco, Dubai, Detroit, and Sweden. In 2020 Block handed the reins over to longtime friend and rival Travis Pastrana for the latest round of Gymkhana, the first time a Subaru has been featured in the series since 2009’s Gymkhana Two.
Built for Gymkhana 2020, the fully bespoke, 862 hp Vermont SportsCar prepared Subaru WRX STI is hailed as the “wildest STI ever.” The car features a custom carbon fiber, wind-tunnel developed, body kit including an active and driver adjustable double-element rear wing. Underneath the carbon fiber skin is the most advanced Subaru ever built, featuring technology developed via Subaru Motorsports USA’s successful rally and rallycross competition programs. All told, this is an intensely modified and high performing piece of automotive art.
