If I am not feeling confident after the first drive I will surely think on it and try again. I am not expecting a fast vehicle, just something fun to drive to work, road trips and to tinker on between projects on my old 88 pickup. My 88 pickup is my never ending project and I want this BRZ to be my daily reliable car.

Curious what's bugging you. Its quite a change from a pickup in so many ways, especially in bow you see around (and how others notice, or don't notice) you.

Have you looked at anything else?

I worded that post poorly i believe. Nothing was bothering me at all, I just meant that if anything on the test drive did bother me, that I would hold off until I got more time to test it again and think. But I ended up loving it the first drive out and knew it was the one.

LOL yes, I almost scraped the front fender on a curb parking after coming back from the test drive.. the front end is longer than I am used too.. that and I cant see how long it is cause the hood dives down so fast! There must have been a half inch or less of clearance when I checked after I stepped out. Gotta get used to not just letting my front tires roll up against the parking stops..


Today was the first commute day in it, everything was great. Still cant believe how nice it drives. All the guys at work loved it. Really happy with the Performance Package too, the wheels are great looking, brakes are almost too sensitive, compared to what I'm used to. I don't have much to compare on the suspension side so I wont talk out of my ass on that one but if I had to comment, it rides firm but nice. It soaks up smaller bumps better than my truck.

I've learned to trust those weird turns of verbiage. That said, it sounds like it probably was just something like "I can't see into ANY cars any more, this is weird" or something. Enjoy!
