$20k off MSRP for the ZL1 1LE (2018 MY discounts + strong dealer discounts due to dealership owner's usage of the car).

The BRZ/FRS are all salvage projects

I do owe 50% or more of 4 BRZ/FRS now though.
Lol. When 650hp starts to feel like not enough, just drive the brz for a week and switch back. Problem solved.

Well I did something too about a month ago. Sold my Focus RS for an 18 CPO Miata Club w/BBS/Recaro/Brembo. Already added an exhaust and Stage 1 tune, have coilovers coming in and will be going Stage 2 next week. Added an 18 Mazda 3 Touring (2.5L) hatch to the lineup too as I got it for under $17K brand new. Will be my sons car in a few years but my wife's been driving 18K miles a year on a minivan that averages 20mpg and she is really liking the 3.

The Miata is a total blast. Already have several autox days lined up. I was going to buy an Elise but after a few test drives it was just way too uncomfortable on our crappy roads. I still want one but will need to happen later or if I buy a house that has more than a 3 car garage.

Sorry for the late reply, as I don't check this forum often. I went from 2013 FRS to E90 M3 as I always wanted a 4 door M3 but I came back to a 2015 FRS due to M3 maintenance cost rising as it got old and also really missed how tossable the FR-S was. But after I got back to a FR-S I couldn't stand how gutless the engine is after owning a 4.0L V8. I convinced myself many times that I can drive hard and heel/toe matching in traffic and drive a slow car fast, but when I try to merge in-front of a Honda Odyssey, reality hits. I ended up with a Lexus GS-F a more reliable E39 M5.
