I’ll likely keep it because when I think about the C8 it’s a whole other rabbit hole of “well, I should just sell the BRZ and the Miata and use the C8 for everything”…. Always something 😂

brz is more practical than the c8. miata will make a c8 look like an overweight tail-heavy pig.
i dunno, i feel like a c8, despite having more power, is going to be worse at everything you've indicated you'd use the car for, practicality, or cone-racing...

True. The best setup would probably be to just have the BRZ to use as the daily and as an autocross car. That was actually my original plan back in May when I ordered the BRZ, but in the meantime I decided to get the Miata for autocross and now am pretty dedicated to using it for autocross as I like having a convertible. I think part of the issue is I came from having a sub 4 second 0-60 car with more space as the daily driver, and even though I do value the handling just as much I’m not really using the BRZ’s awesome handling the way I would be if it was my autocross car. I’ll likely keep it for now though as it does have enough room for things like groceries and such compared to the toy car Miata and the BRZ is fairly uncommon to see compared to many other alternatives for a daily.

If the miata is your "race" car and you enjoy driving it on the street, then you can go WAY more "race" with it (or even exocet it) and keep the BRZ for the street car. Sure it's not very practical compared to something with more utility, but what would you rather drive EVERY day?

Casually jumping into cars that cost over twice as much? Keep going then, sell BRZ for 911 GT3.

You are onto something, but no need to go GT3 with big money. Get a used Cayman, if it’s just street get the base, if you are tracking get the S. If you must have the back seat get a Carrera S. Both cars are fairly practical.

Cayman has definitely been on the radar... GT3 not so much

Have you sold it? I am interested in buying it and that is why I am searching for it online. I am glad I found your post. I can pay for it as you want. I have earned a lot of money by playing online real money games. I found a site where I found best skycrown casino review Canada and it helped me in finding those sites through which I can earn a lot of money.

Keep it and rent a car/truck/van when you need one.
Count up the number of times you have NEEDED a larger vehicle in the past 2-3 years. If you are growing your family that’s another matter. Get a fast station wagon. Extra bonus points if you get an old Olds Vista Cruiser and drop a supercharge engine in it and upgrade the supporting go fast parts |

I'd take $27k (USD) for my 2022 BRZ with 4000 miles on it if I were to sell it. But then again that's a lot of $$ for us Canadians
