To be honest, I haven't paid close attention to the FR-S/BRZ until recently.
I guess I didn't want to get my hopes up, especially if the car didn't make it into production.
Now that it is coming out, I'm really excited.
The GT 86 is the car that I've always wanted.
From a Honda family my dream car was an S2000; awesome engine, great 6 speed and lasting heritage. But I didn't really care for the convertible. Once I owned the S2K it was great, but it wasn't very practical.
The GT 86 seems to have most of the good things about the S2K but with more practicality and better gas mileage.
Now my biggest choice is whether to get the BRZ or FR-S...
