It is for me!

LOL This post went into tangent space. It went from what should I do turbo or trade, to auto vs manual to vaping at car shows to some kid wanting a Porsche. LOL like conversation in a bar.

If it were you would you go FI on your 86 or upgrade to a used care with more omph?

How much more omph do you want? It took me 3 different turbo kits to figure it out but I like where my car is now. Did I need more power for the type of driving I do...... NOPE but I wanted more.

And many others. The difference is that you don't whine about how expensive the FRS is and then say you are getting a car that costs three times as much or expect to be able to sell/trade the car at the depreciation rate of a family sedan.
In summary you have real world perspective, expectations and goals.

WTF. I invested $27.000 into this car when I bought it!@

You trying to tell me my INVESTMENT doesn't increase in value over time?!

Hmmm I actually could get a 911 before I'm 30 but I really have no desire to. Plan is to keep my BRZ and modify it, then get a Rangerover as a second car later on.

But yeyy I'm a twentysomething that tcoat doesnt hate :p

Recently came to this crossroad. I love my FRS and the other cars I sat in and drove, just didn't do it for me. I am sure there is something else out there that I would be happy in, but the FRS is MY car. I decided to go Vortech and tune it with my OFT. Should add a little more power, but at the end of the day, I get to keep the car that I fell in love with.

I don't hate anybody even Raves. In fact overall I am very impressed by the young guys on here. Now some of the older ones well....

You live in the big apple and you want to have TWO cars?

ZionsWrath · 04-21-2016, 12:05 PM

I could have "afford" a 911 too if I didn't spend all this money on mods and track time and buying the car new. Oops lol

Def couldn't afford to track it though, or drive it in winter, or park next to a shopping cart at the market. which is the funnest part about this car!

I'm aiming to get a house in queens or brooklyn before I get a second car. Before I even need a second car anyway (for family).
