Default Leaving my CR-Z for a BRZ

Well I've been thinking about it for a while, and I've decide that I will be getting a Subaru BRZ when it comes out this spring. I went to the dealership and put down my deposit. I'm number seven on their waiting list.

I love the CR-Z, but now that I work from home and don't have a daily commute I've decided to go with something even more fun.

Has anyone else been checking out the BRZ or it's siblings the Toyota GT-86, and Scion FR-S?

Very true. Althought the predictions on the BRZ put it at about 29 MPG (US) combined.

I was only filling up about once every three weeks when I was commuting. Now that I'm working from home I'm sure it will be even less often.

Personally, I think the interior looks decent on that car. For what the car will be priced at, its much more reasonable as opposed to something like the interiors from an STi or EVO X lol.

No argument here that the CR-Z has a much more impressive interior, but an interior for me is more about feel and fit then looks for me.

I want a BRZ/FR-S, but only to ADD to my fleet. I await the STI version...
