    hello y’all,

    I had a 2007 Hawkeye STI that I crashed and bought a 2011 Lancer EVO GSR...

    350hp to the wheel later I traded in for something cheap and fun. Here comes the 2014 Subaru BRZ limited.


    A few autocross events later, I got tired of race cars and got myself a mint condition 2018 Tacoma Off-Road 6 speed manual!

    Looking forward to learn a lot.

    Just put on the Falkens wild peaks and TRD wheels*

    Shoulda kept the BRZ to compliment the truck.

    Purposeful vehicles are almost always more fun than trying to have a do-all.

    Congrats! New owner too. Love the concept of the BRZ, would never buy one though.
    1.Should have been a convertible
    2.Should have been a Toyota engine in a Subaru. Subie boxer engines are junk. Keep an eye out for an inexpensive fun to drive used car that you can beat the snot out of it when you feel inclined to though. :)

    Very nice. I always been a huge fan of the S2000. After I sold my Evo, I was looking for a small, rear-wheel drive sports car, and there was a beautiful dark grey 2005 Honda S2000 with red leather interior and less than 30k miles that totally slip through my hands! Anyway, that is a beautiful Evo you got there. I love the choice of the Volks wheels. Do you still have it?

    I sold my Evo recently to get my wife a new car. It felt a bit "soul less" on the track. AYC and S-AWC technology is fantastic, but it takes a lot of the fun out of the car at the track. I'm actually keeping my eyes out for another S2000. That's one car that I regret letting go of.
