If I could go back and buy a car again, I would buy a ...???
Would anyone change to a different car knowing what they know now? Or, would you still go back and get the FR-S or BRZ?

Any smaller, rear wheel drive, performance oriented yet affordable coupe would definitely be worth a look. Unfortunately not many of these exist...
For the money, I don't see anything on the horizon that would make me regret my purchase...If the SRT guys at Dodge would only get their shit together....... |

I would still buy an 86.......
but I would put my deposit down on the biggest dealer in town so they would order my car instead of waiting until the price was released and then order it with the rest of Australia...... Still waiting for my 86, deposit down in March. Lesson learnt.... on the plus side I think I could almost build my car with the parts I have bought for it ............ |

Had I known how awesome the BRZ actually is, I just would've ordered one earlier so I got a better deal. That's the only thing I would change. Maybe some of you FR-S folks feel the same way.
Also, still would've gone with the limited. The only other thing I would change is trading my CLK320 in for a 335is |

I would've test drove a LOT more cars. Not because I want a different car, but because driving the piss out of a bunch of sports cars sounds like an awesome way to spend a Saturday

Had I known how awesome the FRS actually was, I would've ordered one earlier so I got a better deal and exactly what I wanted.
