Update on this, and I guess somewhat disappointing, but it is what it is. I ended up selling the BRZ. I got a fair value on trade-in and bought myself an AWD car. We are planning on staying in Colorado for the foreseeable future, so I decided there was no point in keeping a RWD sports car around as my fun car. Going to build something different now.
For those that want to try to scoop it and are in Colorado, I traded it in to McDonald Mazda South in Littleton on Saturday. It'll probably be there a couple of weeks before they auction it.
So long and thanks for the all the fish
