and where Ford got the idea for the Mach E, since this is about as much a BRZ as the Mach E is a Mustang.

Still nice looking concept, would drive!

All in all it is really just a lower and slightly smaller Crosstrek Sport

Yeah, she wants coupe car & put Bride seats (why Bride? Cuz I had em). She always liked BMW looks and M2 is a coupe BMW that she's can afford... so that's why she's wishing for M2CS.

Hold on. You had to trade your coupe in for a SUV but she wants a coupe? Hmmm....

She doesn't want 86/BRZ... more like she doesn't want same as me. So I told her about Supra. BMW & Toyota mixed in lmao

That's awesome, the M2CS is a beast of a car.

But if you are going to get one of those, you might as well upgrade to a Porsche GTS 4.0...

Meh. I’m not a big Porsche guy.I would take a first gen Cayman with the IMS fix but that is a much different class of car. I’d rather have a GT350R after the M2CS.

a little different though, as the brz had a year of 'heritage' at best by then, where ford re-used a 50+ year old name for an entirely different product than the heritage imply's...

I took Haru today on a visit to my parents and then with my parents to this coastal/beach walking area with some trails where a lot of people walk their dogs.

We'd been there an hour and Haru had probably met a couple dozen dogs without any problems. Then we were sitting on a bench and a big Samoyed ran over. Before I knew it, the dog was snarling at Haru, trying to bite him for seemingly no reason. I froze for a second and then quickly picked up Haru but the other dog was so big it was able to keep jumping on us.

The samoyeds owner had to be 100ft away and took over a minute to finally get over there and leash up their dog, get them to stop harassing Haru. I let Haru down after I carried him away and then he was super fearful of any other dogs that came over. So we left.

Really hoping this hasn't soured him on meeting new dogs. why can't people responsibly handle their unleashed dogs??

If you want to meet dogs try biking, they are the best method I found to get in shape.
The country type barnyard unleashed ones are the best at getting your Heartbeat at a good level…

My Bro has a mid sized Alfa Female dog which is very tame around people but will attack any other dog unprovoked (always on a leash) I hate walking with her.

I reckon your pup will be OK. It's all part of its learning experiences. Not all other dogs are friendly. Don't stray too far from the master in a strange territory.

Reminds me of the time when I was representing FHLMC (the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation) and I was in the process of evicting this big ol boy from a house in the bad part of Spanaway. He came out of the house with a full sized snarling pit bull on a leash. He was not being cooperative and kept letting his dog lunge at me. I told him that if he did that one more time, I was going to shoot his fucking dog.

He blurted out - WITH WHAT?

I showed him - and he put his dog back in the house and we continued our conversation.
