I test drove some '17 and '18 Si and BRZs when I was last shopping for a daily. (I wound up with an Infiniti Q50, soo..... LOL)
For an 'only car', I would pick the Si due to the practicality. it's a larger car with more interior room and you can actually put more than a backpack in the rear seats. The FWD will help with snow as well. Plus Honda reliability. And it's still a fun ride. Because of the turbo, it had more scoot in Houston traffic than a BRZ, and unless you're insistent on drifting in empty parking lots, you won't really miss the RWD because the Civic handles pretty well.

All three are fun cars to drive and reliable when you don't mod the s*** out of them, but you are sacrificing interior room for RWD if you pick BRZ or ND. They both make a great second car, IMO.
