Excellent review. I have the same exact BRZ... traded a 2010 Miata MX5 to get it. When I first got the Miata I wasn't happy with the body roll and soft ride... so on went Koni adjustables, a Hotchkis Swaybar Kit, and set of sticky Bridgestone RE-11 tires. Those simple mods totally transformed the car into a go-kart (still miss that car in fact). The BRZ feels very similar right out of the box to my lightly mod'd Miata.... handling and steering are both very similar. I'm still torn on the engine of the BRZ... as of right now i think I preferred the "feel" of the Miata when you really put your foot into it. I guess there's a reason MX-5's have made so many 10 Best lists... but the BRZ is very comparable in its very first year.
