Inherit the s2k for free, spend the 10k on mods. You will have a much better and faster car than the twins

On the other hand, if all that a BRZ is going to cost you is $10,000, why not finance that $10k over a 5-6 year period? Is it only $10k because you have family helping you out? Which is awesome! Don't pass that fortunate opportunity up. If you have good standing credit (650-700 or higher) you will only be paying a couple hundred to own a BRZ along with owning your s2000. Plus maybe you and your dad/brother/family member you can trust can go on weekend rides in each car and have some fun as well. |

If you can keep the 86 as a daily without also turning it into a project, go for it. I wouldn't be able to. |

As a result of someone making power comments... (especially for daily driveability) I made this spreadsheet. That and I'm bored at work.

Along similar lines, here's a printout from Supersprint's dyno (AP1 vs. FA20):
