Glad I'm not alone with needing a touch-up pen already Demandred7, I've got 2 teeny chips and ordered a paint pen too. Just have pick it up.

BTW is anyone here on twitter? Don't want to bog down the board with my fr-s natterings.

Did you end up with the Bridgestone Turanza all seasons on your FR-S?

Did you order the touch-up pen from the dealer? I don't have any chips or scratched yet but I know it's just a matter of time until I do.

Saw a Whiteout FR-S turning left from Fischer Hallman onto Bleams yesterday, gave you a few honks as I drove past in the through-lane, much to the chagrin of the drivers around us.

Guelph Toyota happened to have one at the parts counter. Just lucky I guess.

Brmillercc Yes, I got the dealer to order me one but I bet he ordered a few while he was at it.

No I definatly have summer tires but as I have a short drive to work I'm usually ok but a little snow can make my drive interesting.

I've been seeing quite a few FR-S in the these areas!
I don't have one, but I have a modded black Genesis Coupe.

I do appreciate other cars other than my own and the FR-S is a beauty.
Not sure why FR-S / BRZ people don't appreciate my approvals.

Since this is your first post, I am curious how you show your approval? Are you flashing your lights? Giving them thumbs up? I'm not sure why the recipients would not have any other reaction other than thanks.

Sometimes a simple wave and a head nod of approval, but it seems like a lot of FR-S / BRZ owners don't even approve of me.

I think I might have passed you on the expressway a few months ago near fischer hallman? WRB BRZ

Can you post up pics? I know it was a black gen with superlux and quad tip exhaust, can't see much from your avatar.

I know I've read other post within the forum, with people saying that they have gotten 'dirty looks' from Genesis drivers. Maybe it's not you, it's just Genesis drivers in general.
Personally I like them, but I have gotten some rotten stares from some Gen drivers!

Most likely! I haven't seen many blue ones maybe 1 or 2 so one of those times was you. I live in the lower doons area.

Superlux and quad tips sounds very familiar!

Yeah I've read that too and it makes sense. I really do like the look of the FR-S and BRZ, just a little small to me but it looks great none the less.

I think it also depends where you live based on the driver's attitudes on the road.

I think I've seen your car around Northfield in Waterloo, or one really similar. Do you work at RIM (BlackBerry)? I'm pretty sure I'm the only employee on Northfield campus with an FR-S.

There are a lot of modded GCs in the area. One guy in my work parking garage has one with the single exit fartcan. I hate the car personally, but I've never met the driver so can't really judge.
