Some even go to more drastic measures:

Where do you people live that you need to do things like that. I can buy an FRS in my local grocery store, there is even a choice of colors.

OP is on crack. We are in San Diego. I can find more real FRS/BRZ's then you can find toys. I can drive past 10 Toyota dealerships in 25 minutes. On top of that he wants Oceanic Blue. That color sits on lots longer then the more popular colors. Talking about local dealers, all dealers in San Diego are local LOL

LOL. My story was the polar opposite. I forget the cars existed. Walked into a dealer to take a casual look at the Tc. Mine was sitting in the middle of the show room in all it's blazing orange glory. I thought "what the hell is THAT". I looked it over and said "I will take it". End of story.
