I went from a 2011 Evo X MR to a 2013 BRZ. I don't regret it.

The Evo is plenty fast (for me) in stock form, and the paddle shifters are actually pretty great. The AWD system makes you feel like...

Completely agree. The '17 is notably smoother in most respects (but I wouldn't call it "soft"). It reminds me of going from AP1 to AP2 in S2000 terms.

It's behind the Safeway in downtown San Leandro. Used to be called Richard's Automotive but I think it changed owners a while back. They sell 100 octane, and mix it with 87 to also offer 93.5.

Traffic actually wasn't too bad yesterday, by SF standards at least.
