I would avoid the 2013s, especially with the valve spring recall just being announced.

I don't know I think it might make the 13's even cheaper. The dealer still has t fix it right?

That's a good point. But there are more know problems with the 2013s and not all of them are covered by the dealer.

If a 13 is still around, it's probably safe to say the problems won't pop up. Not saying it won't but there has been plenty of time for things to go wrong.

Manual, Uh the amount of prev owners doesnt really matter probably not over 3 and I want it in as good of condition as i can get and nothing crazy on after market as I will do all that stuff myself and would rather not deal with someone else's taste obv clean title and what not best condition I can get tbh.
White, Asphalt/Dark grey metallic, Raven, Crystal silica black, or World rally blue. I just cant get myself to love the marine on the frs
I really want your car sir its got the best of both worlds

These are currently my options the frs at bill luke is right next to me and the last brz is a few hours away. The one at bill luke has quite a bit of scratches and other stuff in the paint it was also boggy on startup and the price they had on everywhere but their website is a lie so I went in thinking it was 17 turns out it was 18, The dealership wouldnt knock the price for everything wrong with the car that I found and it wasnt a little bit but long story short im still considering it but I had a terrible experience at their dealership the rest im in contact with and haggling about
The Horne auto Brz wont come down with their price which is kindve frustrating but oh well.

If I'm buying a BRZ again, I'd be looking for a '17+ model for exactly these reasons: Valve spring recall & defective TOB on the '13-16 models (and earlier production '17s), and better gearing on the manual tranny.

Not sure why. Looks to be a good price for mileage and year. One owner and clean title. Good way to save 10k over a brand new one. Get the VIN and confirm it's not subject to the vavle spring recall. The only thing is the TOB but with the low milage I would venture to say it's still got a long life ahead of it.
