I will say that I don't think he'll have an issue with the refinement coming from a 2000 Civic. I drove a 2001 Accord previously and I find the BRZ much quieter and easier to drive on the highway. I didn't find a big difference in ride quality either, but sure did notice the lack of body roll.
Compared to other new cars, sure its no quiet cruiser but compared to a 90's era Honda it is. He also is unlikely to complain about lack of torque. I feel like I could pull tree stumps in my BRZ compared to my Accord.
I was cross shopping an Accord Coupe and liked everything about the interior more except the head unit dual screen setup. The BRZ head unit may be bad, but at least it's easily replaceable without tons of bezels and messing with car integration. The Accord had a real back seat, much bigger trunk, but less usable pass-through when the seats were folded. The steering was accurate and had decent weight, but was completely devoid of feel. The only auto the 4-cyl Accord Coupe is a CVT though.
