Just curious that is all. As for me having my BRZ for more than a year I love the car, but havent seen many of us posted or try to sell part here. Plus I dont really like the format of FT86club(.)com IMHO lol

I kinda miss boost but the superior handling makes up for it.

I've actually been noticing something..... I keep seeing nothing but FRS's everywhere.....

sometimes I change lanes, speed up a bit to catch up.......FRS

or in a parking lot, go to park by the "subaru".....nope, another FRS

i'm not sure if i've seen a single BRZ the last few months, but i've seen 50 FRS's

My buddy got a BRZ like a month after I got my WRX. I tried to talk him into getting a WRX but he said the insurance was a lot cheaper with the BRZ. When we go driving together it can sort of keep up but can't beat a turbo.

He wants more space, really. The BRZ is great and a super fun car. But his lifestyle requires more room in a car.

He really likes the new WRX, so we'll see what happens.

I see BRZs all the time but the majority has always been the FRS i think because of the cheaper price tag

I decided on a BRZ because the insurance was a little less. I was thinking it'd be about the same as the WRX, but was quite a bit cheaper. And... it is a little harder for me to wrap around a tree compared to a WRX. And the fuel economy is nice.

I'm still very happy with my BRZ. It's handles well and is fun to drive, which is what I wanted.

Yup i sold my 04 STi for an FRS about a year ago. I have no regrets because it's RWD, and yea it's a bit underpowered but going full headerback can help with the power/torque dip. I can also hold my own on road courses
