Good question, when I first started buying a BRZ I'd say I was excited, after the weeks of waiting for the dealership to bring me an AT Premium instead of the MT Limited I ordered, the headache of reordering elsewhere, the wait time x2... I'd say boost.
I loved the feeling of being the first owner (1st time new car,) and driving a vehicle nobody else had and that I'd only gushed over in magazines. After about a week the lack of power really became a kill joy. |

Definitely the boost. Drove my car more than a year and these ten days with the turbo is retardedly awesome!

I was more excited picking up the car tbh, that was mixed with nervousness as well since it had been a long time since i had driven a manual car.
I recorded my first pull with boost in the car and it's just my giggling like a school girl.

Was excited until I went on a freeway with it. Now it's exciting both on and off the freeway.

So far we have established that turtles and turbochargers are equally exciting, and the car is not.
