In the world of small, fast, beautiful cars, drivers in Mount Pleasant, Hanahan, West Ashley, or Summerville actually have a pretty exciting array of models to choose from, with pricing ranging from low 20s up into... well, about as high as you could go. But if you're looking for the absolute best little car for the money, you need to be looking at the 2016 Subaru BRZ in Charleston.
Though the BRZ is the only model within the new Subaru lineup to not offer their Symmetrical AWD system, it more than makes up for its rear-wheel-drive persona with state-of-the-art technology, advanced engineering, and precision tuning from front to back. It's well-balanced, aggressive, lightweight, and well-powered. The 2.0-liter BOXER engine boasts 200 horsepower and 151 pound-feet of torque, but with such a refined body and chassis, the BRZ knows how to use every single ounce of that power.
