I came from a 2002 Subaru WRX STI with 300hp
And a 2007 BMW 335i with also 300Hp.
I was enjoying the 300Hp club, however the BMW felt way too heavy for my taste. Also very unreliable.
I used to always think the 86/BRZ were slow but once I test drive them I fell in love instantly. One of my favorite cars today and always want to find reasons to drive it!
Another nice thing is the NA motor. After forced induction, NA is just more fun for me and every little part makes such a difference

I also love the simplicity of these cars.
Now I'm a 200Hp club fan. I'm planning on picking up a 4 door Civic SI also for a family car in the future.
