Of course, not factoring in the cost of jail bail and driving tickets from enjoying that glorious flat-plane crank V8 and the sound it makes. (It is a fantastic sounding engine.)
Alas, I like that I can wind out my BRZ on public roads w/o killing myself, killing anyone else, destroying property, and/or going to jail.
Yeah 45k is a pipe dream for a GT350. Even used unless they've dropped.

I was very close to buying one a few times, but spent less and have a faster car instead. Mine doesn't rev to 8,250 though... The engine is also far less likely to fail. :shrug:
