The original 4 cylinder e30 M3 is considered the most pure form of the car generally, but because of that, you can't get one under 20k. It's strange how similar the BRZ/FR-S is to that car- around 200hp, RWD, light weight, perfect balance, drivers car.

The e36/e46 M3s are much more watered down, but still very good machines in their own right, and having a dedicated M3 track car, in any model, is quite impressive. The M motors, like the S52, are insanely good- hand built, take boost easily, very strong.

spotted silver BRZ, I think, today at Jamba juice around 4pm on Redmond Way.

It had a rear diffuser.....is that even functional by chance? Still debating if I should get one....

Silver FRS yesterday on 405 S - saw you behind me when we were getting by the 522 exits. Ended up on the 124th exit together.

spotted within minutes of each other.

Today at Bellevue Goodwill around 5pm. I was dropping off some donations and saw a limited white BRZ. Found out you only have 2000 miles on it. The next 8000 will be awesomely fun! I know mine is.

Shortly exiting goodwill, saw a white FRS with Oregon plates parked in front of goodwill.
