I thought a bit the same way with all my previous cars, used or new. Even with my BRZ, everything was new and how I liked it.

I went to Streets of Willow on Saturday and one of the cars in front of me dropped two wheels and sandblasted the front of my car. One of the stamped lines in the hood now has a sizeable dent & paint chip in it...

Am I sad that it happened? Sure. But it's not going to be the end of me nor my car, and I shaved 3 seconds off my best time at the track with the BRZ on that day.

Good to hear about your track time!

And no, I am not giving up, was just annoyed for a few minutes. But thanks for the advice.
