My track day is a 50 min drive each way !

I got a $550k mortgage man... It sucks I'm broke, but I'm borrowing more to get the 86. I've had my celica for the last 12 years @ 430,000kms . I deserve it, after all the things I have had to put up with the st162.

Nothing is stopping me from getting this car. But keeping it is another story. Hoping the leasing company doesn't take it off me !

Not to sound mean(but I know it is going to sound mean), unless you guys have kids, why is everyone so concerned with the backseat? You are going to be driving the vehicle, correct?

Thats not sounding mean at all, its a good question. I am a 22 year old guy that is looking for my 2nd (but first new) car purchase. I want to get something that will offer me a little bit of utility, as it will be my only car, and I will need to be able to handle whatever life throws at me in it for the next 5-7 years of my life.

Just trying to cover my bases. I don't want to get a car that I will regret.

Not to sound mean, but if you don't care about the backseat, why don't you already own a Miata?

There are alot of reasons not to own a miata and be interesed in the FRS/BRZ. Backseats may not even be a factor.

Some folks (including myself) just don't want the highway noise (top up or down) and car security issues attendant with owning a convertible. Especially in climes where verts are only good for top-down running about 3 months a year (high summer needs AC, winter....).
