I feel like everyone has similar complaints and from someone taking the plunge and switching, I wouldn't go back. I loved the car and its driving mechanics but there are so many knocks on the DD list that it wasn't for me. No room for passengers, having to red line the car to beat a dam Camry at a stoplight, rough ride (great for cornering but I don't have a ton of apex's on the way to work and the wife didn't like it on long trips), and lack of interior quality (I am talking even with the BRZ limited).
The new car has oodles more power and I don't have to beat on the car to get up to highway speed or go fast. It is very sporty and honestly stock to stock it handles better and puts out better lap times then the twins. Part of this because of the power but the other is the goodyear eagle F1's that come stock and the great job Ford did on the stability control system. The ride is smooth and I drove my wife and another couple to dinner, all in one car! The twins are great cars but I think they aren't for everyone and I feel I have upgraded in everyway, except for RWD.
Probably in the next year or two 50% of the people on here will be driving different cars from the twins. This isn't sad its exciting, what we have formed here is a group of car guys who can meet up and enjoy each other's company no matter what car we drive. The best part for me is as you guys buy new cars I can check them out!
