Would You Buy It Again?

New guy here. Been a lurker since day one. I have been thinking of getting a BRZ/FRS (new or used), a S2K, or even another WRX. So would you buy yours again or get something else?

yes. a million times yes! my car is sitting hella stock at the moment but the fact that a build can go so many different ways amazes me every time. then again, i haven't had much experience as to modding and tuning because my previous cars were either just work trucks or the aftermarket didn't pay much attention to that model. Its a very fun car to drive but I'm sure you probably heard all the stories about em

Finally! A topic with a great question... It's too early to tell. I'd like more power for sure. I'm still on the fence between a 370Z and the 2015 Mustang, in reference to "would I FRS/BRZ again.

I'd buy my car over and over again without hesitation, though I think I'd probably go for a Whiteout if I could repick my color. I love my Ultra, but I still think white cars are the smexiest things around. I just didn't want to shell out extra for the paint difference and well, when I arrived both Whiteouts were already claimed even though I was there at 6 AM xD

Hard to say. Sometimes I think how amazing how I could've made my mr2 if I didn't get the frs. But when I get into the frs, feel the sweet shifter and rail it around a corner, I realize why I chose this car. Just needs a small turbo kit. That'll seal the deal because as of now, I'm not totally 100% in love with it.

I love my car. I might need to sell my car soon though. Family employment problems. Does the car NEED more power? No. You can get sideways and maintain a drift on the stock tires. Do you want more power? That depends on each person.

Sometimes I consider going back to a WRX for more practicality. But, I think it's really a case of the "grass being greener on the other side."
