It's been 6 months since I sold my BRZ now, only one day I have looked back and really missed it. Don't think I will own a twin again.

I love my FR-S. Great handling, enough power for the streets, amazing driving position, good interior, great manual transmission, and is a beauty. So you know I guess you could say I'm in love .

It's been 13 months since I had to sell the car. Not a day goes by that I don't wish for it back. Once that degree is in my hand, it's back to ft86 lyfe.

I've wanted to get this car since before i joined this forum and i finally was able to buy a used 2012 BRZ at the start of this year, i'm coming from early 90's corollas and my most recent car is a '99 toyota starlet and im just transitioning from that to the BRZ i am so happy with it can't wait to drive it full time, driving the Starlet until i sell it so at the moment the BRZ is a Garage queen.

Even though the radio is the old camry one its a huge step up from the one station screen not working head unit i have in the starlet, and with the air-con and power steering, less road noise and a MUCH smoother ride i feel like i've gone and bought a Luxury car lol.

Sometimes I try talking myself out of the FRS but every other car I consider instead just gives me more and more reason to keep the frs. I guess I'm getting spoiled with the frs and dont even realize it and keep telling myself "wellll.... what if I got ______ car?" Every time I can give an arguement as to why the frs can be better.

I don't think i'll ever consider selling my car unless something major happens in my life, i love it too much. This was my first 'performance' car and now i'm thinking about trading in my winter car for a WRX, but i'd rather not have another car payment

If I ever get tired of it i'll bolt more parts on, I think that's why these cars were made!

I'll state again, I love this car and it thrills me every time I drive it. Doesn't thrill me on Thursday and Friday which are my wife's days lol
But we both love it and get a lot of joy out of it.

From what I've been reading from owners, the 2015+ WRX get's damn similar MPGs to the twins.
