The WRX is fun in snow and gravel, but on pavement it is just boring and numb. To me the BRZ is a go kart for the street.

But a lot of people aren't coming from that experience they are just assuming that the twins will magically make them happy when they drive. For me I've been reconciling the fact that I will be trading the Supra's acceleration intensity for handling response and creature comforts. But I am also exploring contingencies if I realize I really miss the acceleration (positive displacement SC if they get a reliable one developed).
This car will not be perfect. People need to remember that or there could be some destroyed expectations.
