For a non-car guy, the 'discomforts' of the BRZ will be a turn off in the long run. It'll rattle eventually. Despite the suspension not being too overly stiff, you'll still feel every bump on the road. There is absolutely NO sound deadening in the car, so there's a lot of road and tire noise. The sound system is below average. And it's louder in the cabin than a typical car. The lack of space for storage isn't an annoyance to someone like me, but another person might dislike it. There's also the 93 octane requirement. It really is a bare-bones sportscar in every sense of the word. That includes every little annoyance and nuance that come with sportscars; little rattles, strange noises, etc.
Yes it looks cool, but I can't imagine someone who doesn't like cars tolerating the BRZ as a DD and commuter in the long run. I highly suggest skipping the BRZ. The new Mazda 3 is awesome looking, has a better interior, wont rattle, more fuel efficient, still sporty, more cargo space, comfortable ride, and much less expensive.
