Remember to bake them properly, and watch out for passing woodsmen.

No grammar check either, I'm not seeing any verbs in that 'sentence'.

In the end I will probably just keep my BRZ, but the other options are very appealing at this time in my life. |

I've already said it, but the WRX is just so much of a better buy for your money than the STI is. For a 2.0T with that kind of peak hp (and not just in the 180-220 hp range where it's easy to tune for drivability), its torque delivery is pretty good. It's obviously not going to have the same feel as a light RWD coupe, but it's a huge, huge improvement over past WRXs. Plus remember that even the previous gen WRX/STI were really close in terms of track performance when Car & Driver did their Lightning Lap at VIR, and that was when the WRX had a detuned version of the 2.5-liter, so with the newer motor with a stronger torque curve than the STI's, the gap between them shouldn't change too much, as both cars share the same new chassis, just the STI might get some extra goodies. Yeah, I know what you mean. I've test driven so many cars, but my Evo has been paid off since maybe 2010, so a lot of money has just been getting saved -- likely to go toward a house, wedding, etc., but a new car is always a possibility, but not a lot has really grabbed me to the point where it would make me want to get rid of my car. But if it were to get totaled, part of me was thinking either a BRZ Series.Blue (though they're all probably sold by now) or a WRX, though being in my 30s, I've looked further upstream too. My older brother picked up a 2015 320i last November, and for having numbers (180 hp and 200 lb-ft) well below what I'm used to, it actually doesn't feel all that slow. I had actually looked at the 2015 C-Class, but when you spec it the way you want it, it becomes way more expensive than you'd think. We'll see how much the 2016 C450 AMG is when it comes out though |

But, if you love the BRZ, by all means, keep it. It's an awesome car. I just started a family and probably have a few years on most people on this forum. The STi makes more sense for me than a BRZ. That said, the STi is awesome. It's unlikely that you will regret making the switch if you do. |

If you get the manual, spend the $75 or so and get the Perrin shifter bushing, and Perrin shifter pitch stop. Takes about 40 minutes to do both mods and it makes the shifter so much better. |

I'm really liking the additions to the Nav package despite the much higher price tag. I was actually ready to buy a 15 WRX Limited with Nav last week, but someone signed the deal for it while I was about to go on the test drive. If only we didn't let the baby take a nap...lolz. |
