If it's any reassurance, they said it should be back on Thursday or Friday, so try checking back with them then.

Seems like the smart thing would be for SOA to have a google map on their website showing the location dates the BRZ will be at dealerships. The way it is now you base it off a sales guy at the dealership. Not the most efficient way.

orange peel doesn't really bother me much as it's pretty pervasive throughout mass produced cars. if you want to spend the money you can always get a custom paint job. just sayin'

thanks for postin' the pics man!! lovin' the BRZ and just that much more stoked to see it next Saturday!!!!

I've seen those paint textures on other Subaru before, it's on my car too. It's harder to see on DGM, SWP, CBS, and SSM I can gurantee you that much.

Thus we could plot its likely route and intercept it.

Ideally, they want a very light and consistent orange peel texture throughout the car so the finish is durable and thick enough but not so thick that it runs. All my Toyotas have had this. But Guff posted an inconsistent and heavy orange peel. That won't fly in final production.

You could rent/"borrow" a big enough plane to lift that truck off the road.

Dear Guff,

After having such a shitty day, i logged onto brzclub to find such awesome pix. Please note that youve also reassured my decision of remaining a BRZer. I hope that production paint doesnt come out like that tho...

Nonetheless, you've made my day much better. Thx for taking the time to snap those photos!!

Love,

Ur little BRZer
