I bought a 2013 Subaru BRZ in 2012. It's still my daily driver. I love it. It's got very direct, tactile steering, a low center of gravity, great brakes and one of the best manual transmissions I've ever used. Better still it's inexpensive, efficient, trouble free and absolutely reliable. What's not to love?
To be fair, I don't drive it when there's a recent snowfall. Front engine rear wheel drive is not a good formula for traction in snow.
