Thanks.

just wanted to ask, as some of you might have had other cars that may be in a different league for speed/power like I said with my M3 or if you had Mustang GT or WRX STi (type cars).

Do you find the BRZ to be adequate for daily driving and weekend back road use. I won't ever track the car and like I said many cars that'll do 170 mph won't ever be uses to their potential as my area both safety and law enforcement tend to be the limiting factor more than absolutely power.

Half the reviews I read/watch say the BRZ is the most fun you can have for $30K the other half say the engine is horrible and the car is too slow. I am not ever racing and I own a 2007 Legacy Wagon which is not fast at all, but I still dash ahead of *most* people at the stop light. I imagine that the BRZ will feel quite peppy compared to my old wagon.

I'm not expecting it to be the S2000 (top end) but if it feels like a S2000 that rev limited at 7500 instead of 9000, that would be ok. I expect that in a lot of ways it would feel like an S2000 engine (AP1) where it has modest TQ and short gearing and low weight, it's probably that just missing the extra 1500 revs that is where you lose the extra 35hp.
