Large enough to fit a set of 4 wheels with tires

Well, I can't argue with that if you call clamping a couple of hoses a headache. But compared to installing the SC, that was nothing to me. I did so much more for fun on my car. To me, a headache is failing on the road or refusing to start in the morning. Car has never been in a service to fix a malfunction.

You've got me there. I couldn't get one of my 275/35R19's in either trunk if I wanted to. I am enjoying the ease of packing and unpacking the trunks on this car though. The BRZ had enough space with the seats folded down (mine went down the day I bought it and never went up again) but the mail slot opening was a pain.

Congrats on your new ride.

Enjoy the Cayman! That is the benchmark of a driver's car. My point was that an FI twin can be reliable as well. But in any case you have upgraded your car.

Didn't sell the BRZ, but I just acquired the evil Italian twin to the Cayman.

Also, good choice on the Corsa, makes the FA20 sound great -- I love mine!

Did you order FFFFFF for the 4C’s plate?

Once you drive one, you will understand why a manual wouldn't work. You really want both hands on the wheel with this feedback machine.

I already got it from my previous car.

Bravo for not ruining a perfectly fine BRZ trying to make something it was never intended to be.
Smart man to know your needs and buy the appropriate car, like a Mustang or Cayman.

Wish there were more people who have the sense like you !
