I hear ya. It's just so frustrating! The heart of a car is its engine, and the BRZ's is weak. And its driving me nuts already, after just 4 months I take the engine to redline quite often in 1-3 gears and it leaves a lot to be desired, both in sound and power.

It's a dilemma and I'm not sure which route to take in the near future:
Upgrade to a used Cayman S, and worry about higher maintenance costs, or supercharge the BRZ, which tosses the powertrain warranty out the window and will hurt resale down the road.

Meh
