I don't live my life 1/4 mile at a time. I live in Boston. I drive to the airport. The roads suck and they have low speed limits. My BRZ feels fun doing maybe 10-15mph over the limit. Breaking the tires loose a little in a controllable manner at sane speeds is pretty fun. My old STI was torture on my commute because it didn't feel fun unless I was at least 20mph over the speed limit.

Aside from the snotty feeling of driving an expensive car, I would guess on most mortal commutes a BRZ would be a funner drivers car. I'll one up that and say that a Miata would be better than a BRZ on a nice sunny day.
thats because the sti is boring. while i agree with the fact that a miata or the like can make more pedestrian drives fun because of the low limits, things like corvettes are so much fun its stupid.
