Update on my car hunt

Sooooo, instead of going used, i bought a brand new 2020 Subaru BRZ TS. I learned to drive manual that night with my older brother and now I can somewhat drive the car. I already love the car so much. I need to give her a name now.

Nice, for a name how about:

Yeah it's not an Italian car but it looks and sounds like one (without the breakdowns).

I like the interior on these newer models. Compared to my 2013 FR-S, it definitely looks more upscale. Congrats and enjoy your new car.

It's a bit of a premium, but it's great to have a car that's not soiled by another human.
