Chapter 622: Subaru BRZ (1)
Chapter 622: Subaru BRZ (1)
The BRZ turned out to be a new model, Zhang Chen was overjoyed, and shouted that he wanted to buy one.
"I can't buy it, the new BRZ won't be officially put into production until 2021, and people haven't produced it in Huaxia, because of the emission problem, it is estimated that it can't be introduced to Huaxia, so I can only buy second-hand cars. ”
"Brother, don't talk so loudly, can you?" Zhang Chen felt that his mood was the same as a roller coaster, he was teased by Fang Yuan up and down, and finally fell into the pit, and was splashed with a basin of cold water on his head, which was too sad.
"Fang Yuan is joking with you as a friend. Du Xiao patted Zhang Chen's shoulder and smiled, "How about buying one at Zhenghong Auto Dealership?"
Fang Yuan is indeed like this, everyone's temperament is different, he never jokes with unfamiliar people, what if he provokes others?
Now teasing Zhang Chen is because he knows that he has an easy-going temper, and he will not get angry because of his joke, let alone madness.
"As I said earlier, there are very few BRZ cars now, and even fewer cars are not available. And Fang Yuan thinks that you must be very careful when buying a small sports car like the BRZ, and its condition is simply two extremes.
Either change a mess, the car is in very poor condition, this is generally the original owner bought and modified on the track to die of the open-mindedness, so even if the age of the car is very short, you must be careful, otherwise you will fall into the pit.
There is also a rare situation that the original owner is still in a state of plain car for a long time after buying it, and this kind of owner buys a car purely to follow the trend, and people say that BRZ is good, and he must have it.
Because there are many cars at home, after the freshness has passed, I forget it in the garage.
This situation is almost unavoidable, and it is a big explosion of character to encounter, as long as the price is not too outrageous, it must be resolutely won.
"Modified cars are good, didn't you say that modified cars can bargain?"
"Things are not so absolute. Fang Yuan told Zhang Chen that if the power system is changed, the program is brushed, etc., of course, you can use this as an excuse to bargain, if people just use the chassis eight-piece set, it is not so easy to bargain.
"I see. Zhang Chen asked Fang Yuan, "Doesn't your car dealership have a BRZ?" ”
"Okay, come over here. Fang Yuan pointed to two blue BRZs in the distance.
Zhang Chen trotted over, looked at it from a distance, and his eyes were attracted by the unique rally blue.
Zhang Chen found that compared with his own Ruizhi, the overall body of the BRZ is very low, with a long front end, which has a bit of a BMW big nose from the side, which proves that there are a lot of fierce materials under the hood, which should not be underestimated.
Starting from the A-pillar, an arc extends backwards to the tail, the lines are smooth and natural, and the realm of sports fashion is highlighted at once, especially at the end of the slip-back shape, the small tail wing is slightly upturned, ****, exquisite, and riotous.
The overall body proportions are just right, the lines are smooth, the corners and corners are rounded, and the most nice thing is the two-door sports car, as if a small hand is tugging at Zhang Chen's heartstrings, and he suddenly feels that his ambition is not fragrant, and his steps can't help but speed up a few points.
Closer to the front, Zhang Chen found that the inverted trapezoidal grille of the BRZ, whether it is the shape or the transition of the corner lines, is similar to that of the new Audi, but due to the low body, the black grille appears flatter, and the more exaggerated almost occupies the entire front face, plus the sharp front lip below, as if a big mouth is saying, I am very sporty, I am wild and difficult to train, and I will cut the 2nd gear 7300 together.
Zhang Chen's gaze moved up, above the grille is an oval Subaru logo, one large, five small and six stars represent the six stars of the Pleiades star cluster, when I saw it, I remembered the horizontally opposed engine, which in Zhang Chen's opinion is synonymous with handling and performance,
If the black grille is exaggerated and the body lines on the side are sporty, then in Zhang Chen's view, the headlights on both sides of the logo are the most amazing part of the vehicle.
Like Zhang Chen's Ruizhi headlights, the headlight shape of this BRZ is also maverick and unusual.
Its front corners are sharp, and slowly thicken backwards, especially the lines at the lower end extend diagonally downward, so that the position of the high beam is like a full droplet, and like a human triangular eye, but it is upside down.
The headlamp resembles an eagle's eye with a sharp, sporty, and more charming, Zhang Chen smiled, he liked this kind of flamboyant tone, which was very suitable for his young self.
Fang Yuan and the others walked over, Zhang Chen suddenly turned his head and said, "It's beautiful, I like it." ”
"If you like it, if you like. Fang Yuan thought to himself, just with your sentence 'I like it', it will be like changing to a car dealer to pit you with two thousand yuan and playing.
Zhenghong car dealership is a fixed price, the price is clearly marked and refuses to be cut indiscriminately, and there is no second one in the entire Tianhong second-hand car market, which is definitely an alternative.
Moreover, Fang Yuan's character would not pit Zhang Chen, he walked over, patted the hood, and pointed to a 2016 Cayman 2.0T Porsche 718 in the distance: "Is it like it?"
Everyone looked in the direction of Fang Yuan's finger, and then turned back to compare the BRZ, and everyone knew that what Fang Yuan said was not like it, referring to the fact that the front of the two of them had a fighting posture of swooping forward, which meant that it looked like a god, not an appearance or something.
Fang Yuan is so similar to the Porsche 718, Zhang Chen feels that this BRZ is forced to improve, and it is extremely tall.
"Look at it again. Fang Yuan walked next to the main driver, pulled the door and faced everyone.
Zhang Chen suddenly found that the door frame surrounding the glass had disappeared, and he was a little surprised: "I didn't know that the BRZ was a frameless door. ”
"The BRZ has the same frameless doors as the Porsche 718. Fang Yuan introduced the benefits of frameless doors, and concluded that frameless doors are fashionable and very expensive.
If Zhang Chen buys a BRZ to pick up his girlfriend from work, he must lower the windows when he stops on the side of the road, open all the doors, and then play heavy metal music, how loud can the volume become......
Zhang Chen smiled and asked curiously: "In this way, you can attract the envy of others and capture the hearts of more sisters?"
"You scumbag, do you have a girlfriend who still wants to take your sister?" Fang Yuan jokingly teased Zhang Chen before he continued, "No, this will attract the company's security guards to drive you away, because your car door is blocking the road." ”
Hahaha, everyone knows that Fang Yuan is joking, but this kind of frameless door is indeed as Fang Yuan said, it is easy to fool some girls, so girls should be more familiar with various models, otherwise it is easy to be deceived, because Porsche 718 is six or seven hundred thousand, and BRZ is only more than two hundred thousand.
A small joke made the atmosphere in the car shop more relaxed, Zhang Chen had always liked this BRZ, and now he was even more interested in it.
"You look at the interior. Fang Yuan beckoned Zhang Chen to come over.
Zhang Chen walked from the front of the car to Fang Yuan's side, and when his eyes touched the steering wheel, his originally beautiful expression suddenly froze.
Zhang Chen was indeed very surprised, compared to the X-Trail he drove before, even if it was the Ruizhi he had just bought, although the configuration of these two goods was low, at least it was a multi-function steering wheel, with buttons on it for easy operation.
What about this steering wheel in front of you?
In Zhang Chen's opinion, it is a thin circle on the outside of the three bare iron sheets, and there is not even the most basic air bag, is there anything more humble than this?
Hey, really, when his gaze moved to the central control position, Zhang Chen's mouth opened slightly, looking incredulous.
Not to mention the large screen of more than ten inches, there is not even a small screen, it is a CD player.
Manual air conditioning, radio, long handbrake, no traditional center armrest and armrest box, only a storage compartment and removable cup holder......
What made Zhang Chen pout even more was the dashboard, a purely mechanical pointer instrument, no driving computer information display, and almost no traces of today's electronic technology, as if he had returned to the 90s all of a sudden, Zhang Chen felt that Song Guoyuan had changed his Ruizhi very fragrant.
Zhang Chen's fingers stroked the interior materials on the dashboard, and the astringent feeling was a little astringent, and there was a gurgling sound when he knocked it, 100% hard plastic.
Looking to the right, the woven seats, 2+2 layout, due to the shape of the slip-back, the rear row is not only cramped in the headroom, but also the leg space is also very small, not to mention sitting an adult, even a child about nine years old is struggling, can only be used as an extra storage space to put things.
The only thing that Zhang Chen didn't understand was that there were two long red straps with buckles hanging down next to the headrest of the main driver's seat, which seemed to be seat belts.
After a simple look at the interior, Zhang Chen came to his own judgment: the materials are cheap, the configuration is so low that it is mad, the space is narrow, and it is a bit of a fool to buy it for 100,000 yuan.
At this time, Zhang Chen remembered the interior of his modified Ruizhi, leather Lexus steering wheel, large screen and atmosphere lights or something, to force the grid, to have face, to beat this BRZ.
However, Zhang Chen didn't dare to complain to Fang Yuan, what if the price was very low? After all, you get what you pay for, and it's good to buy at a very high price.
"Brother, how much is this BRZ?" Zhang Chen tried his best to soothe the sore liver that was stimulated.
"Two hundred and eighty thousand. ”
"Poof. Zhang Chen's mouth immediately grinned at the back of his head, "How many years of car? How much did you run, how much did you go on the road back then?"
Zhang Chen looked very excited, and there were a lot of questions, but Fang Yuan was not surprised: "The 15-year-old car, the actual table is 30,000 kilometers, and the landing is 292,000 that year, this is the 2015 2.0i manual version." ”
"It's been 5 years, even if the mileage is less, 292,000 that year. Zhang Chen felt that he couldn't breathe out of his heart, his fingers started from the steering wheel, and he made a noise in the car, "I don't even have a driving computer, just this tattered steering wheel, central control, dare to sell for 280,000?"
Looking at Zhang Chen's indignant appearance, it seemed that Zhang Chen was more ruthless than the robbery, and everyone laughed.
"Brother Zhang, that steering wheel is a racing wheel, and it was changed later. Wang Hu covered his mouth and leaned back.
Du Xiao also testified to Wang Hu: "I have seen this brand of quick-release steering wheel in the racing track, what is it called MOMO, it is a genuine product bought from a modification shop in Xiangcheng, and the price seems to be 2500."
"Huh?" Zhang Chen was stunned, he really couldn't figure it out, a steering wheel that didn't even have an airbag, and such a simple steering wheel cost thousands, and said with infinite feelings, "Modification really costs money." ”
"This is a fake, five or six hundred dollars, and the original steering wheel of the BRZ is not bad, and the later version has been changed to a multi-functional. Fang Yuan's body leaned into the car, reached out and took out a steering wheel from the back seat and handed it to Zhang Chen, "Well, this is what the seller left behind." ”
Zhang Chen held the original steering wheel handed over by Fang Yuan with both hands, and his face was full of disgust after just a glance.
This T-shaped steering wheel is obviously made of plastic, without any control buttons, and only has the blue Subaru logo of the six stars of the Pleiades star cluster in the middle.
"Compared with the stunning coupe design, low and sporty appearance, and the unruly frameless doors, this Subaru BRZ is not only low in configuration, cheap in materials, and small in space, but also does not pay attention to maintenance after the age comes, and its interior noise, brake noise, steering system noise, engine noise, tire noise, wind noise and body shaking sound, messy and concert-like ......"
Song Guoyuan disagreed with Fang Yuan's statement: "This is a problem that ordinary Japanese cars have, low configuration, poor sound insulation, poor materials, and many abnormal noises, but for sports cars, the noise is loud, not a problem, what you listen to is the roar of the engine, BRZ In addition to the engine noise and abnormal noise that Fang Yuan said, there is almost no exhaust sound at ordinary times, even after 3000 rpm, there is still none, and all you hear is the engine noise amplified by the active sound introduction system." ”
"This active sound introduction system is very noisy, if I just dismantle it. Du Xiao doesn't like this kind of artificially created sound.
Fang Yuan understands that the sound wave is different from person to person, some people think it is very high, and some people think it is very noisy, which is self-deception: "The steering wheel of the BRZ is heavy, and it needs strength to the shoulder, but its pointing is accurate." Its seat is a bit hard, and the wrapping is very good, Zhang Chen, you come up and give it a try. ”
Zhang Chen crossed Fang Yuan and didn't get into the car, first pulled the original seat belt on the left side of the seat, and then pointed to the two red straps he saw just now: "This is a four-point seat belt?"
"Yes, this is the original owner's SPARCO four-point seat belt. Fang Yuan pulled out the same red straps from both sides of the seat and told Zhang Chen that the genuine product needed to be a few thousand bigger, but unfortunately it was also fake, a few hundred yuan.
"Where else has it been modified?" Zhang Chen asked curiously, "Is it more?"
"The modification in the car is only a quick-release steering wheel and a four-point seat belt, the seats are all original, and the trunk support rod, heat dissipation guard, heat dissipation floor, engine compartment support rod, engine room front tie rod, rear bar reinforcement, midsole reinforcement, fender skeleton reinforcement, front anti-roll bar, oil breathable kettle, ......"
The original owner did not change the power system, tail row, appearance covering parts and the like, so such modifications did not affect the value retention rate, but when the car was collected, Fang Yuan did not add money to Manager Wang of Zhenghong Group Headquarters who sent the car, which was picked up for nothing.
When you collect the car, you don't spend a penny, and when you sell the car, this is the advantage that Wang Hu and they boast of.
You can completely open the lid for customers to see, and it is easy to accept that you sell thousands more than others, right?
"Your conscience is greatly broken. Zhang Chen teased Fang Yuan, but sighed at the depth of the second-hand car, if he wasn't friends with Fang Yuan, he wouldn't know what it would be like.
Zhang Chen believed in Fang Yuan, and no longer asked about the modification, sat on the main driver, and suddenly turned his head to Fang Yuan and said: "It's a little hard, but this wrapping property is really very good, like a pair of big hands hugging my body." ”
"Yes, the BRZ's seat comfort is average, the overall wrapping is very good, you see the wings on both sides of the original seat are high and thick, sitting in it feels like locking people on it, there is a kind of racing bucket seat smell, this is to prevent the body from being thrown around while driving. Fang Yuan asked Zhang Chen to touch the material of the seat, "The fabric of the seat is weaved, and there is a layer of fluff attached to the surface, so the friction is very strong, but it is easy to stick to the wool and is not easy to take care of." ”
