Yep, I'm gonna do that. BUT...

I still want to know what other people think: Does a 10-year old "luxury-ish" car hold its own compared to a new, "basic" model? I mean with technology advancing the way that it is, I'm thinking they can get the gaps on the panels tighter, parts are designed to last longer, etc. I mean my factory NAV in the G still has a little stick for me to point the cursor to the individual letters to spell out my destination! (For those of you that don't understand, this means it isn't a touch screen) Honestly, the most awesome part of the BRZ I think, is the location of that oil filter! This is the part where I tell you I had to get special ramps just so I can roll the G to change the oil!

OR: Is this one of those cases where "They don't make them like this anymore" and I should just keep the G? I've been thinking about this for two years while I watched the FT86's development.
