I've been shopping around to maybe trade my 8 yr old STI with 16K miles and get a new sporty 2 door car to replace without altering my budget for my other hobbies.

Problem is I search and keep coming back to the Mk5 Supra each time and I already have one.. :dunno: I honestly do not like 4 door cars, but some cars only come 4 doors.. The new M2 looks like a shitty Dodge Stratus, M240i looks a bit retarded as prior 2-series did, the BRZ tS /GR86/ND3 maybe, but probably not enough power for my kind of GT driving on back roads. Perhaps the ND3 just because it's a vert and I've never owned a vert.. but they look so flimsy man..:crazy: (I do not plan on any major mods anymore, so want something cool out of the box).

The Supra just checks off all the boxes.. and incredibly cheap for what the car offers.
So it looks like I'm going to just keep my line up another year or so.. its not like there is any loss keeping a low milage STI anyway..

I'd recommend an S2k, if you can find one. Having owned one, I wish I still had it along with the Supra. Great engagement, shifter feel, all around great car.

I too miss driving my s2000. Honestly, for my driving skill level the Supra and it's power can get a bit uncomfortable for me. I had more confidence driving quickly in my na1 nsx and s2000 and had more fun driving those cars. Guess I need more seat time in my Supra.
