In regards to reliability issues, I thought the synchro issues were more 13' my? I haven't seen too many with newer years and from what I understand transmission is stronger with 17' +
The recent spring recall gives me reason to hesitate, but tons of brz have made it to 100k+?  Most people I've spoken with seem to agree they're near bullet proof
I've always lost money on cars, and I've owned more than I should. It's my hobby. I still save a pretty decent amount and put a decent amount into retirement so 
Tried finding a 17 used, found two in WRB for 21ish k for premiums. Both sold within a day of inquiry. I was quoted |
Beware of placing too much importance on "issues" reported on a forum. The people affected are a microscopic few but they are verbal making such things appear far worse than they really are. The valve spring recall is in no way formal yet so it may or may not be a cause of concern but if it does become reality then you just take the car in to be fixed.
