When you can get a thrashed one for $10k it'll be a fantastic track car.

the problem with brz is that it looks like a damn tomica car. needs wheels and lowering at minimum to make it look like an enthusast car.
someone in the market for a brz/frs probably either has a lot of money to spend, or no money to spend. |

Consumer Reports survey found the BRZ/FRS worse than average in reliability.
I bought my 370Z to keep being the chic magnet I was when I had hair and a beat up Honda!!! Bald at 65, hoping a Z would make up for it!!!!! |

I see the BRZ as a Miata like car and not just for young folks. The majority of them, that I have seen have been in older hands not all mid life.

Does this seem correct? Our own site poll does not resemble a median age of 51 for the Z. This implies 55% are baby boomers or older? I'm not convinced.

It's probably fairly accurate. Forums tend to skew toward the younger people.
