Obviously they are two different cars but does anyone have any stories of coming from an EVO to a BRZ or vice versa? I don't think I'll sell my BRZ for one but I know someday down the line I will have an EVO, so thanks.
It's not an EVO to BRZ story, but I think it's still pretty close to home. A friend of mine went from an EVO to an S2000, and he has not regretted it one bit. He loves the 'feel' of driving and speed, and his one major gripe with the EVO was that you just didn't get that feeling with it, and I have to agree. Having driven his EVO, it was certainly fast, but there was a certain disconnect between car and driver.

If you're a raw power / grip diver, and you don't really care about much else, then you will love the EVO. You will definitely not get that fun, nimbly, and connected feedback though as you would with the 86 platform and an S2000.

The EVO was on my list of potential buys last year when I was searching for a new car, but I ended up buying an FR-S, because awesome
