Dadhawk,
I have followed your car and and thread since the beginning and have loved reading through your car journal. We are quite similar (I have three kids, but much younger than yours with the oldest turning 8 this July). I loved reading the stories about your MR2 as I can totally relate, with my MR2 being a 1984 Mazda RX-7 GLS that I worked my tail off for in the mid 80's mowing grass and doing construction from the age of 14-17 (got the car in 1988 from a middle age woman who garaged it the whole time and took perfect care of it). I still miss that car and the other 2 RX-7's that preceded it.
Like you I have owned lots of cars since then and the BRZ is the first car that almost makes me forget those Mazda's. Almost...
So thank you so much for putting your thoughts into words and sharing your experiences. So many people look at a car as a machine that gets them from point A to point B, but you don't, and neither do the vast majority of folks who buy and appreciate the twins and that makes these cars something special.
Cheers!
