Totally agree, I guess I mean the short amount of time some of these people own a car before they trade it. If it’s over 10 years and over 150k, I get why people want new and you got some good use out of the car for your money. But some of these people own a car for 2 years and trade up. To do that for something so similar does not make sense to me.

Frankly, if he wanted to stay with the Twins, and given what we knew about the timing of the new generation and the small incremental changes, I think he made a good choice.

I’m not sure who you think the “racer wannabes” are, but I think we all want the 2nd gen BRZ/86 to succeed. This is a great car that I hope will be around for many more years. Objectively the 2nd gen already seems to improve on several things over the 1st gen. Styling is always divisive, and you will never please everyone. I’m looking forward to driving the 2nd gen and seeing more road tests. I completely understand your choice to get one of the last 1st gen 86’s, it’s such a great car. The 2nd gen will most likely be a great car also, and will improve on many driving dynamics. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

this thread sucks. it's just a car guys calm down.
there's like people dying out there cause they choose to be selfish and not care about their neighbor. now that's really something to get mad about! |

It's a good looking car, and I prefer it to the first gen. I like the improved gauge cluster, and I like what I'm hearing about the engine. I also don't have an FRS in the garage anymore, and instead I have a spot to fill, and luckily for me, this improved car fits the bill.

Same as the greatest Porsche is always the previous generation (except the 996, nobody likes those). People always bemoan change, but by the time the next change comes along the previous change is the new normal.

If I have money in the bank and nothing planned for it, I'll probably buy a '23 when they come out. If not I'll keep driving my '17. Either way I still won't miss my '11 Cayman! Much... |

In the end if someone has the means to buy new cars every two years that’s their business. It puts more affordable late model units out there. And that is good. |

That video was the first that my girlfriend has seen the new BRZ. She approves, which is important because it will be replacing our Mazda 3, which is the car she drives to work.
