If she's ok with the drop in power, the BRZ/FRS will cost you a lot less both up front and ongoing. Between gas and tires, the Z will cost you more over time. It's still the better car, but there's a tradeoff.
Yeah I read that, my buddy has a 350 Nismo and said it was a big thing with these cars. I'm going to have her drive them both, but I'm massively in favor of the Z. They go for high teen's low 20's down here if you take your time to find the right one.

I thought about it for about 10 seconds, and pretty much since my wife and I are both huge enthusiasts we'd be miserable in something like that. Don't get me wrong, if life said that I NEEDED to save that much money then yeah I would but for me I just don't see the need for spending the extra cash on an evo when its just going to be replaced by a GTR and my wife will get one of these cars anyway. I'm trying to make a cohesive plan/path that will minimize excess spending.
