Car Decisions BRZ Sti? or keep putting money in old WRX for Track?

Yea, I think he knows and that's partially why he wants a newer car. He went tracking in my 370z and he loved how much my car gripped on the road, handling, speed and how good it looks. I suggested that he should get a used 370z. Although they're a little expensive. I think the lowest is $30k. But I also know if he did buy a brand new BRZ STi which isn't exactly official and even if did come out, it'll be easily $30-$35k out the door. And I still think if its a little under power. But I think it'll at least have the essential, a well distributed weight, sports car suspension, big brakes (not confirmed). Which kind of makes me think a Nismo 370z or a used base sports 370z would be a great choice. But the Z is somewhat impractical for his DD. which is why I suggest him to save up for a BRZ STi. He actually don't necessary need AWD because he'd be open to learn the techniques and skills to drive a RWD car. Personally I think a true sports car should be RWD as AWD is somewhat of a cheat. Anyway he'll miss having a turbo car. I dunno. He's still torn. A lot of the subi forum members are telling him to get a newer regular WRX or soup up his 2003 WRX with new brakes, suspension, etc. I'd just hate to see him throwing so much money in an old car if he can make better use of his money.
