When you have no money or significantly less you buy the car that is practical and can do more. Not the toy.
In reality, I would probably just take the BRZ off the road until better times come, but luckily I don’t have to make these decisions.

I think car sales could be done for a bit.
i ended up in a '14 brz for exactly the opposite reasoning. i don't plan to be in a position for another fun car for at least 3-4 decades. so i got it when it was the least logical choice.

so i'll sell, barter, and trade for everything else with wheels as needed, but keep this one around for as long as i can, because if it goes gone, there won't be a replacement in the works.
