- 2015 BRZ Honda CRV
I was thinking about trading in my BRZ for a 2018 Si, i bought the BRZ for autocross and some track racing but due to my work schedule i realize i am not going to be able to race much so now rethinking my decision and going with a better daily driver. The BRZ is a fair daily but the Si would be more practical. The tiny rear seats, small trunk, and rwd in a winter belt isn't exactly the most pracitical thing. Right now i feel i have a race car that i am using as a daily ( especially sitting on alot of negative camber and coilovers sway bars etc.) and i think i really should get a daily that can 2nd as a racecar. I test drove an 18 Si, i liked the torque and power but it seemed to run out of gas fast ( i am used to my old 00 and 08 Si and S2k i had) and it def didn't have the road feel the BRZ does nor the handling although it wasn't bad at all. Loved the shifter though. I added shifter springs and bushings to my BRZ which helped but still can't match a honda shifter. Decisions , Decisions. LOLThe Si's low end tq advantage over the BRS makes it the easier car to drive "off boil". The FWD makes it easier in inclement weather. Its also more accommodating, even as a 2dr, for carrying the occasional 3rd / 4th person /dog. More practical overall. More fun? maybe. Only you can decide what you prefer.
