okay your post is a little misleading. im not sure there is a person in the world who would consider the brz in the top ten of classics. it might be in the top ten of cars for 2013 that might become classics though

i guess youre able to have your own interpretation but do you really believe that the top ten classics will all be from 2013?

the words "future" and "classic" cannot be used in the same sentence.

I think what OP is getting at is, if the FRS/BRZ will be considered a classic in the future.
I don't see how you can misread it.

That's not what he's saying at all. I don't know how you can get that from his sentence. He's talking about the BRZ specifically being a classic in X number of years into the future, mainly the 2013 model, as it is the introductory year.

No..not just the 2013 , but each and every BRZ/FRS from the first model year (2013-2015(?)). Time will tell!

Some on the list might become "classics", some not. For instance, there are many cars sometimes defined as "muscle cars", but not all of them, at least based upon established car aficandos, are "classic" muscle cars or even muscle cars..

The future will have many more offerings in the next ten plus years.

We must sit back and not let the the pride of ownership make us dream too much and get us a little too giddy..

what the op is saying is exactly "brz...future top 10 classic." if you dont see how i think he means "brz...future top 10 classic" then i think its because of your lack of understanding, not mine

Idk it seems like you're the one misreading. Look at his post. He's speaking about FRS/BRZ in general. If you're too much of a stubborn individual that wants it his way or the highway, then by all means bask in your own glory. So here, yes you are correct, that is exactly what he meant.

Sheesh
