just picked this up for under 30k, brand new. If/when I get a brz/frs, it will be used and only exist as a track toy.

Congrats man! I hope it gives you "Pure Acceleration Delight".



I'll stick with the "Pure Handling Delight" though...

That stinks. I just called my local dealer and got on a list for a Limited BRZ for $500 over invoice. I have a FR-S and BRZ reserved and will make a decision when pricing is released!
