No, no... I wadded it up coming through an S-turn on a particularly cold day in Texas. I had Advan AD08's on there and forgot to let them heat cycle to-temp before hitting the road.

I plowed through the best-constructed wooden fence in the world. Every single panel on the car was demolished except for the driver's door. Unfortunately, it was one of the few times that I had a passenger in the car. He ended up with a concussion. He's fine now, though. He's my partner in crime and just purchased a Whiteout FR-S.

Haven daily-driven that car for about a year, I am amazed at how much the BRZ drives like the Elise. Well-planted but not overbearingly heavy-feeling. A little more power would put us in the same power-to-weight band and then I bet it'd get even more familiar!
