Methinks, if the 86 hadn't come along, I'd still be riding my motorcycle.

I would have stayed focused on my project cars. This is the newest car I have ever owned(1 year older then the release year). Prior to this my newest car was over a decade old.

I'd probably be driving a WRX.

When I first started looking I was pretty convinced I wanted to get an AWD car, but then they released the twins. Game over.

I probably would have searched around for an unmodified bugeye '03 WRX or a pre '04 TRD Tacoma.

I probably would have a yard full of Miatas. I am surprised I don't already.

I would have kept my Evo X if the BRZ was never made.

s2000 as this was the car that got me interested in cars.

Well, the 350z was the first that I paid any attention to, but the s2000 was the gateway drug.

I posted in here about a year ago, thinking about it now, if the 86 never existed I'd probably have to look for a Hyundai Gen coupe, or a used 350/370Z. Both seem "winter-able" and still fun in the summer. I don't think either would be as easy to work on as the 86 though.

Laguna Blue S2000 with HKS or Kraftwerks S/C





The only part I can't justify is paying the same amount of money now compared to in 2008 for a clean one with 5 times the millage. Only reason I went for the 86 instead.
