I saw a beautiful blue BRZ tonight on 47th Ave, next to Bass Lake Road in Plymouth. No kidding, my reaction to the 'twins' is engorged with more excitement than would be expressed if i'd seen some million-dollar exotic.

Oh no doubt. I can't wait until they depreciate and my employment situation looks less bleak.

I hope they never depreciate! I am wishing for your fiscal success so you can buy one brand new and reward your efforts. Then every mile would be your earned mile in that car.

Today's weather was perfect for this, I got in an empty parking lot all by myself and tried a drift. This car is meant for this stuff, good stuff.

PS
Before some speak, NEVER put anyone else in danger and most importantly do NOT be stupid enough to drift in "public road". (I had a lot more fun by doing so)

we have so far:

1. myself

4.

I just checked and now with shipping I'm getting $350 for a single set, and $1160 ($290 each) for 4 sets.

Unless someone else is gonna step up soon for the local group buy, I might just spend the extra $60 and order a set.

Chirp update +300 miles since HPFP replaced and no noise. Yes: even after extended periods of spirited driving. My butt thinks performance enhanced (my ass thinks so).

The 'cabra and I want a meet this Sunday afternoon - who more? Any destination happenings not to miss (Almost any lame excuse to drive is fine.)?
