Yeah judging a cars worth higher because you can reach its limits earlier/easier doesn't make much sense because that is just illogical and dangerous to those around you on the road. We would appreciate it if you just drove like a sane person.

If the BRZ / FR-S are as over hyped as the vast majority have reports seem to exemplify there is a very good reason to think 27-29k would make them over priced.

I personally think it makes a lot more sense to understand that people have different opinions from you and you should understand that there is nothing wrong with this.

Oh as far as re sale value the BRZ / FR-S are expected to hold they value very well because projetions are always 100% correct, amirite!!!! I'm probably going to get a new MX-5 by around August though because nothing beats those BAMF doors. That and text book old school RWD dynamics. I know I have been going on and on about this BRZ / FR-S implying that I might get one when it goes on sale this summer, but nope, MX-5 for me!!!
