WOW, those things are getting very affordable. I really wish the center console didn't extend all the way to the backseats.

What's next, or are you planning to co-drive the BRZ forever (you're welcome to).

Not sure at this point - kind of had a C5Z06 in mind for awhile and am loosely keeping an eye out for the right one. Main issue right now is garage & driveway space. Moving into a new place without much parking, my son just got his license and added a beater car to the stable for him, and I'm getting married in a couple weeks, which will add a few more cars to the family mix.

S2000

Sorry to see the car go Keith, It will sell at that price. Do you still have any parts or wheels?

No, not really. I'm planning to include the OEM wheels with the car, along with the ones on it now, so no additional wheels. Also have the stock front sway bar and original front lip spoiler, which I'll include with the car also, unless someone wants either separtely.

Also have several quarts of Idemitsu rotary lube.

The C5Z06 is fun. It has a little more torque than the RX-8 :?

Fixed that for you.

However, I am less likely to spin an RX-8, so its got that going for it. This is tempting, but not a good idea at all. With my 80 mile round trip daily commute, an RX-8 would be an awful idea.

Use the 3 as a DD and keep the RX for fun
