36, Married, 1 kid. I'm in the IT industry too
86 will be my 2nd car/toy run-around/daily driver but only in 2 months when I purchase one. Currently have a Lexus IS250 as a "family" car.
Had 7 BMW's (e36 M3, 330i, 330d, etc) in the past as my "toy/daily drive/fun" cars. Currently have an E46 M3 that the 86 will replace, so I'm going to abandon the BMW ship
And yes, after driving one, it is a huge step down in power compared to the M3. Hence, I'm probably going to supercharge at some point. Still love the drive this car has to offer.
