Default Keeping the 05 TC

I was thinking about getting a FR-S, but after seeing one in person I really don't like how cheap the materials feel in the interior, really hated the fake carbon fiber on the dash, just looks crap. I did buy another car though.

BMW 05 545i, 67,000 miles. Got it for $10,000 cheaper then a new FR-S. Will only use for fun and kept the TC for computing back and forth to work. Few more thousand and I'll be joining the 100,000 mile club, on repair so far was the right front wheel bearing.

Yes, I completely agree with the cheapness. Took a very close look at one at the Chicago auto show a few months ago and it was very very cheap, it completely turned me off the whole concept. But that's Scion, I guess it's as cheap as our tC's, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but I guess I had higher expectations for some reason, I dont' know why... However, for 15K more, Subaru did it right haha.
