I second the $50,000 comment. I get so many looks and people complimenting the car. The only person that asked how much I paid for my BRZ thought it was in that range. Lol

Reminds me of this: My neighbor a few houses down had some motorcycle buddies gathered in his drive. One of them looked over at our drive and saw our Miata, and he asked my neighbor, "Is that an S2000?"

My neighbor replied, "No, that's a Miata. The S2000 is inside the garage."

And it was. Still is...

One of my coworkers said my BRZ looks like a "supercar". Another calls it my "concept car." I guess I'll take either one. All I know is people are always stating wondering what kinda car it is when I'm driving.

Most people I've talked to don't try to take a guess, they just ask.

When I tell them it's a Toyobaru, then it becomes a different story.

Took mine to a local meet tonight, generally its a melting pot of just about every kind of car. I cant tell you how many old people were confused by the scion logo, Toyota/subaru under the hood and boxer motor just blew their mind.

Even though my car is still Scion badged, people still ask "What is it?" and I get double takes from Porsche drivers quite often. My OEM looking mods probably adds to the confusion.
