I enjoyed the brz but after previously owning a 06 LGT LTD, and afterwards an 06 STi I just couldn't handle the change and traded off on a 12 sti.
But as far as the car itself, I enjoyed it for what it was and if I could afford too, I wouldn't have minded owning both.
If your not set in having AWD and a turbo and looking for that style of car, I would highly suggest getting one, you won't be disappointed.
Just don't buy mine, they are asking $29k for it with over 3k miles and its a premium.
