SoCal Spotted

Did a quick search and didn't find one for SoCal. Though I may have missed it since I'm using my phone.

Spotted a Raven FR-S with tinted windows on the 134 merging to the 5. We said what's up.

Fish where are you located in the SFV? I've only seen dealer BRZs/FRSs in the area so far.

Saw an Argento FR-S leaving Poway towards the I-15 yesterday about 5 PM-ish. Still had dealer plates on it, looked to be Toyota of Poway temporary plates but I could be wrong.

First one I've seen on the streets, nice to see them around.

I've only seen an Ultramarine FR-S parked at Chipotle in Palmdale.
However my friend keeps telling me there's a silver BRZ on Edwards AFB that I have yet to see...

My SWP BRZ and co-worker's whiteout FR-S provide a breath of fresh air in our office parking lot!

Just passed a GBS (or possibly a WRB) BRZ in Irvine. They turned north on Sand Canyon from Barranca as I was headed south.

There's a spotted thread, but no SoCal one. NicE!

THe only one that I've spotted is that black FRS parked in front of the liquor store near my house in El Monte. It's there every once in a while...Must belong to the store owner or something.

That might have been me. I live in that area and have a Raven with tint (has been removed). When did you see it?

I've been looking for any FR-S/BRZ cars out and about and haven't had any luck seeing them until today! Someone had their white BRZ parked in Hacienda Heights near the 85 Degrees Bakery (same plaza as Albertson's and Guppy House). Finally!!!!

Spotted a white FRS with the five axis rear spoiler and wheels on my way to work this morning. It had manufacturer plates.
Spoiler looks awesome.

It looked exactly like that one with the same spoiler, same wheels, same beat sonic antenna and even the same "797" manufacturer plates, EXCEPT that it had the stock exhaust. I'm pretty sure of it. The driver followed me for a good 20 minutes in traffic.

I wouldn't doubt that it is the same car though.

Spotted firestorm frs driving back from vegas

First time seeing one side by side on the road. Very nice to actually see one on the road.

If your on the here, was your car ok driving through all that high winds and sand on the 15 south? Hopefully no scratches.
