Exactly. Some research is needed. It just made the list that you do not want to be on. However, it is a nice ride.

If I had a daughter that would be a cute car for her, but a man or a young man needs a pickup truck, plain and simple. But of course if it was me it wouldn't be brand new nor would I randomly come on a football message board and let everybody know I did such a thing. Just saying.

lifted pickup truck that thinks that makes him cool, yet everyone laughs at how he has to overcompensate. A car does not define a man (or young man), who cares if he wants to drive a sedan, van, or SUV.

Many moons ago I bought my son a car....Took him five years to save the money to buy an engine fot it. Pretty cheap for me considering it just sat idle while he held his head up high behind the steering wheel making a rrrrring noise with his lips!

I've had a couple of WRXs with the turbo flat 4's. My last one is one of the few cars I've owned that I truly miss. Got rid of it because the wife hated riding in it. Made her sick to her stomach
Cosworth makes a Stage 1 and Stage 2 kit for it(FRS/BRZ). It's been a while since I've looked at it, but I believe they warranty the engine with their kits.

91 octane's no problem. $2.00-$4.00 extra per fillup.
People are all like "you pay for the most expensive gas? why don't you just use 89?"
These are usually the same people who are willing to drive 25 miles to save 60 cents.

Not to mention, there's a whole slew of folks who get a car from their parents after graduation and nothing else. That's the end.
Looking back, my suitemates bitching about me being a "spoiled rich kid" is all the more laughable considering their parents were stuffing money into their bank accounts week-to-week while I was working a job.
The car was nice, but cashflow into your 20s is nice, too.
Like SOLOS said, everyone has their own way.

My theories are:

I tend to believe it's 1 or 3. No one wants to admit they sell Scions.
