It's going to be a "retired" race car for now.
Still keeping all of the go fast parts, detune the engine for now. No crazy aero.

Wife has a Ford Flex for family hauler and it's paid off. I might debate getting a civic or Corolla for DD once the used market stops being stupid. I never owned more than 1 car in my life at a time

Ok, I tried to let it pass but I'm back at this thread a few hours after first reading it.
A mnemonic for those concerned: Here is from there. Heir is from their.

My twin is my daily. I do need to purchase winter tires, because last season was not pleasant driving back home, even with 3 inches of snow on the road.
I do wish I had a beater to commute to work and rack less miles on the BRZ, but is a short drive so is not terrible. |

Yep, still my daily/winter/road trip/everything car for the past 7.5 years and ~147,000 kms (~91,000 miles). But will be driven less now due to working from home ever since COVID started. No more commuting to the office!
Surprised I'm still on my original TOB based on what I've read... |

It’s my summer toy,
A garage Queen If ya wanna call it that… Only sees some sun from April to November. Only 3 years old hardly used it last year. It needs another Oil change again which will be done tomorrow, 58K KM (or 36M) on the ODO just love pilling up the drives to nowhere. It does get to see tracks often - But only as a spectator.. Still Does what I intended it to do. Get me someplace else with some fun in between. |

It has been my daily but as you get older you want something more comfortable. I am at a point to where I could keep this car as weekend/track toy just not sure I want to have 3 cars.
