Yeah but look at the prices? I looked at used before picking up my 2014 BRZ, then realized that the used prices were ridiculously inflated compared to a new one on the VIP program.

It's just a shame they are being circulated like this already. As if it was attainable enough, at this rate it's going to be owned by those who are, I don't want to say undeserving, but yeah undeserving.

This car deserves to be treated better. I'm honestly surprised at the amount of owners letting them go.

Not enough horse power. Most people only know how to drive in a straight line. This is good news for me though, I'm looking to buy one dedicated for the track and was hoping to get it used.

Regardless, I doubt this car will be discontinued.

I agree wholeheartedly, but I meant for the US market where you have rich house wives driving 550HP supercharged Range Rovers to buy groceries and take their kids to school.

Yeah it's quite disturbing. I'm hoping it's mostly people who bought them and couldn't make the payments. Anyone trading in this early is losing their asses. I does give a good look on retail though. Some Auto FRS' are going stupid cheap though.

So long as they keep selling plenty of new ones to kids for HS graduation, it means that we'll have plenty of cars for Spec 86 series racing in about 10 or so years.

Folks hated miatas and made fun of them. Sold them off cheaply. Now you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a few at the track racing Spec Miata...
