Traded in my 07 STi for this car and for those that are curious, yes i miss the turbo, but no i don't overall miss the car. I was wanting to track my STi and just couldn't rationalize tracking my DD car, the BRZ is now going to be the DD and i'll be buying another STi for track down the road.

Going fast in straight lines gets old after a while haha. Even going into corners and accelerating out of them, the BRZ just does it more cleanly in a way. I do feel that the STi overall will still be able to out handle this car but the BRZ "FEELS" so much better doing it! It took me driving it to realize that, all the power of the STi and it really did feel heavy compared to this car, body roll and all. I still catch crap from my family and friends saying, "How did you go from a turbo'd car to a non???", none of them understand when i say it simply drives better lol.
