    driven 5 different ones so far. 4 FRS, 1 BRZ. i'm in love. most fun I've ever had in a vehicle on pavement. don't even have to break the speed limit to have fun in it, which is why I like it.

    Same exact thoughts on why I loved it. Just didn't want to spend that much on a vehicle right now.

    This thing is so low its like driving a go kart around town. Sucks i have to drive it "nicely" since it is a customers car. Definitely a huge difference compared to the taco.

    yeah, that's the only thing keeping it from being a no brainer purchase. I've got about 15 different cars on my list to consider for a daily driver, and the frs/brz is the only one i'd buy new. though if I found a good one used, i'd consider that too.

    Overview: The WRX is essentially an Impreza sedan on steroids. And the WRX STI is essentially a WRX on more steroids. Inspired by Subaru’s World Rally Cross racers, the WRX and STI are powered by high-strung, turbocharged four-cylinder engines making 268 hp and 305 hp, respectively. Both are bona fide cult cars, worshiped by adrenaline junkies willing to overlook the Impreza’s various faults (including its drab interior) and instead enjoy buckets of turbocharged torque and astonishing all-wheel grip.

    not concerned about fuel mileage. the purpose of this daily is not to be a fuel efficient alternative to the truck, but rather a fun to drive alternative that fits into parking garages, and allows my to put the truck on jack stands and work on it for longer durations.

    Here's the list I threw together a couple months ago. it's a very varied group of cars, and always changing :eek:


    New
    · Scion FRS
    · Subaru BRZ

    Used
    · Scion FRS
    · Subaru BRZ
    · Tacoma X-runner
    · Subarru WRX STI
    · Lotus
    · Cadillac XLR
    · BMW M3
    · BMW Z4 Coupe
    · Chevrolet Corvette
    · Lexus IS
    · Infiniti G35
    · Audi S4
