Just bought a used 2013 BRZ Limited, 6MT in DGM/61K and I am in love, been looking around here for awhile before my purchase so I figured since I completed that part, I might as well start getting active with posting.

Thanks everyone!

Carl

Finally got my BRZ delivered yesterday. Man, is this car low, pulled up next to a Dodge Challenger last night and it looked like an SUV through the window. I have been driving a Ford Edge for the last couple of years so the driving height is definitely going to take some time getting used to.

Loving the BRZ

Hey guys

I've had my 2015 BRZ Limited for 3 months now. First car I've bought brand new.

Coming from a '09 Altima and before that a '99 300m this car is definitely what I've been looking for. Everyone at work and other people I'm friends with all say why bother getting a car with a small engine only keep saying that till I take them for a few "spirited" turns.

Everything is stock right now. The only debate until next year is how to handle the winter tire situation hahaha

Hello folks, I'm in the process of tracking down the perfect BRZ for me. Waiting patiently for the 2016's to hit the lots around me so I can decide on which shade of blue I want. Currently have a 2008 SRT4 and after two years of ownership it has caused more headaches than smiles. Been trolling around here for about the past month doing research on common "issues" with the BRZ and how to fix it so when it does rear its head I can knock it out quick. Hope to be joining the owner's club in the next month or so when I know if the Hyper Blue is right or the Rally Blue is the winner.

Senior Citizen just joined.. 75 years old, and I feel/act like 35..

Been looking at the BRZ, and I am almost positive that I will be aquriing one in less then 30/60 days.. Checking to see if it is better to wait for the 2016, or grab a 2015. Will be a Limited/Manual in satin pearl white.. I think this car fits me perfectly. Sure, I would like to go up the scale, but coins are not that plentiful, and this here is perfect for my budget.

I plan on sticking some gold wheels, and exhaust, and oh boy..

Be looking forward to some tips on wheels and exhaust..and I plan on having BIG FUN!!

Wait for the '16.
Updated head unit is desperately needed.
The premium model will be dropping the standard navigation, and the limited you want should have the nice new Starlink 7" unit.
All '16's are set to arrive October - November.

Heard the 16s will be hitting lots this month... That's my biggest deciding factor... I wouldn't mind the 2015 in silver but I want something different than what I've had in the past so blue would be it.

Hey all

Hello everyone been lurking for a while. Picked up my Series Blue 2 months ago with 13K miles. Drove all the way to OH from CHI to pick it up. Since then been reading as much as I can on this forum. Just put some performance parts on "Baby Z". I live a little too close to P&L Motorsports...

Went with the P200 staged kit which includes:
P&L Motorsports Street Series Dual Catback Exhaust, Front Pipe, Overpipe, Equal Length 4-1 Header,Off the Shelf ECUtek Tune

FYI, I would recommend this upgrade package to anyone who wants to keep their car NA, but is looking for more umph out of their BRZ. Makes a world of difference. Hopefully this will keep me satisfied for a while...like I said I live too close to P&L.

Also added 25mm wheel spacers
I added some side view pictures of her with the spacers on...looks sexy to me!

New member, new ride

Picked up my brand new 2015 Subaru BRZ Limited finished in WR Blue Pearl last night. I am absolutely in love with my car even though its only the honeymoon stage. Not going to be daily driven either so I'll hopefully keep the miles off her.
