I'm sure the BRZ/FRS is really popular I just don't know how much of a pain is is to get one since they are popular overall. Unfortunately we have a real dearth of new 'sports' cars lately. If you want new the selections might be a bit thin.

One other point to everyone else. For autocross, raw power isn't always the best. Some of the best autoX cars are quick and well balanced but may not have a ton of raw power.
Take the GTO mentioned earlier, I like the car and think it can be made into a pretty decent track car but for autocross I don't think it works...too heavy even with the fun power. That said the GTO is coming back...it's the Holden, and it's coming back as the Chevy SS.

You have a few options here:
All in one vehicle solution WRX, hatch if you're smart. Or FWD options Fiesta/focus ST, GTI (heavy/slow), Mazdaspeed 3, Mini. Or RWD with Daily Driver combo S2000 (the only option), Miata (if gay), 350z (heavy/slow), RX8 (perfect car but tard engine). I know your tastes from past threads, I just saved you a billion hours. Pick from above and find a stellar example. Good luck and don't settle for anything less than what you want or be hasty in your selection. |

Again, I keep telling you to wait a sec, but the 2015 Mustang will be built on the new EVOS platform and finally get IRS. I have seen some of the concepts, and are moving away from the retro look. I like it.

Seems to be a wash, you pay a very hefty premium for sti vs wrx, hard to justify the cost imo plus I think every STI has been beat on vs probably 60-80% of the rexs. Notice the common theme of "scared of the S2000s" |

If you can't afford the STI version just get the WRX. /thread |

Toyobaru FR-S/BRZ if you don't care much about back seat room or a WXR if you do.
