Going to a brand new, manual BRZ from an automatic eco-car with 109hp at the crank is a life-changing step and I absolutely love my car for this reason. I feel like I'm driving it and I hope that manufacturers do not completely abandon this crucial aspect in the coming decades.
Oh this brings memories. I remember that feeling when i bought my stock 02 wrx with 227hp. I was driving a 99 Nissan Quest van at that time and when i bought the Subaru i felt like i stepped into a rocket ship haha.

By the way, Honda Fit is like my dream daily car! I really want one, i love the way you had yours done up! Looked awesome! I live in a congested city, so small cars that are amazing on gas and easy to maneuver just make a lot of sense here. Plus i just love Kei cars, which are not available so the next best thing is sub-compact
