CT Spotted Thread

I didn't see one already so I'm making one.

Been driving my FR-S for four days and have never (even before) seen a BRZ or FR-S out there aside from my own.

Saw a silver FR-S parked out front of Hot Rod Parts on Rt. 5 in near the center of Wallingford, CT today. Drove by it twice in my Firestorm FR-S.

There is another guy on base here in Groton with a Hot Lava FR-S. See it on the daily and makes me sad I can't find one to throw my money at...

You after an auto or an MT? Toyota of Wallingford has a Hot Lave 6AT instock. I drove it prior to getting my 6MT.

The owner has been driving it so it has a few hundred miles on it. I'm sure you could get a deal on it even though Scion prices are no haggle. That is if you'd take one with some miles on it.

I would start contacting dealers in MA, NH, and even VT and Maine. Reports suggest they tend to sit on lots longer up there.

Just ended up behind a white BRZ getting off exit 13 on 91 south. We both turned right off Rt 5 onto northfield Dr in wallingford before he turned left onto a side street and I kept going. I was in my firestorm FRS. He had a small batman symbol decal below the BRZ badge on the back.

If you live around here speak up. I'm practically around the corner.

Other than dealership stalking I've seen 3 others...all in Bristol...A SWP BRZ near Stephens (driving not at the Scion dealer, tho likely there to snoop), a Firestorm FR-S that apparently is a pizza delivery car at Vivaldi pizza, and a WRB BRZ that I think belongs to a member here who also has a vette (sorry forgot your handle). Still keeping my eyes peeled...

Hey, that's me with the WRB BRZ and the Vette. If you see me stopped someplace feel free to come over and say hello.

That's funny about the the red FR-S, I've seen that car twice on Rt6, didn't know he was delivering pizzas. I guess that's one way to cover your car payments and enjoy your job at the same time.

I own a pearl white BRZ. Live in Terryville, work in Hartford. I'm in Bristol semi-frequently and drive 84 in and out of Hartford everyday.
