Until I seriously got interested in the Toyabaru twins i was planning on picking up a BMW 128/35 to replace my old DD. Frankly though, even though I had to wait 5 months to pick it up, I still believe getting my BRZ was less hassle than finding a manual 135 with exactly the options I wanted. Go figure.
