I watched the video Urban Outlaw (
https://vimeo.com/44410797 ) and there was a point where he had this realization that he liked building cars more than racing them. I realized that it was the same for me, but rather than Porsches my car of choice was the 4th Gen Si. It's the car I learned to wrench on, and the car I built more of than pretty much anything else. So I'm selling the BRZ, buying a new Fit and then building one 4th Gen Si at a time, driving it for a bit and then selling it. Each build will be different, and each will be build depending on my mood when I'm looking for a new car.
I just didn't get the satisfaction out of building the BRZ that I thought I would. More power, bigger tires, more expensive suspension, higher limits...should be more fun, right? It just didn't work out that way for me for some reason. I actually returned the car to stock last weekend (aside from some bushings I didn't want to pull back out) and I realized the car is just as much fun as a daily in stock form as it was with 5k of mods on it.
So Fit as a daily, build 4th gens as my hobby. For me that feeling of searching out a new car, flying out to pick it up, the adventure of the drive back and then planning out a build is half of the fun for me. I'm really looking forward to doing that on a yearly basis.
Side note: Getting back on H-T was weird. :p
