It depends on what you want out of the car. If you plan on modding it a lot, stick with the Evo so long as it isn't your DD. THe main reason I'm getting a BRZ is that I sold my 240SX to get my house and the Nissan Versa. Keep in mind this was when gas was skyrocketing in 2008-2009. I miss that car because the Versa has 0 personality.
