Leaving the community

Well, after a particularly bad winter this season I've decided that I'm going to be trading in the BRZ for a new 2015 WRX. The BRZ is a fantastic car but in hindsight might have not been the best decision for a DD in Pennsylvania. I have to take a lot of back roads to get to work and this winter season was just horrible considering my area doesn't give a damn about clearing the roads. Couple that with lifestyle changes I will be needing those back seats more.

I just wanted to make a final post saying thank you to all of the wonderful users on this forum and hope you all have years of fun and exciting driving with your BRZ / FR-s / GT-86 / BRZ STi tS / FR-S anniversary series / you know what I mean.

Peace out.

(I hope I post this in the appropriate section...)

Enjoy, I thought about making the jump but pretty sure I won't be doing it. The new REX looks sweet but needs a UEL header to bring the rumble back.

Enjoy!

I'm on a same boat as you but have not made a final decision. I did preorder the 2015 STI though, so I am 50% sure I will switch.

We'll see on the day of the test drive.

2015 WRX > 2015 STI because of FA20.

Seems like a great car.

Not digging how eco box it looks. Seems so boring compared to how sporty the previous gens are. Ah well. Still a Subaru which is nice.

Hopefully your WRX doesn't come stock with Primacy HP Eco Green summer tires.
