Nope. Mine's not tinted and is resonated. It might be the guy who came to the Malibu meet... I can't remember his forum name, but he's got a WRB and lives on the mesa. His looked stock when I saw it in January, but maybe he's done some modding v0v

Or maybe there's a new WRB car in town. I saw an unidentified one in Montecito a few weeks ago... always tough to tell if it's a new resident or just a visitor in this town, though.

Heh, I wanted to park next to you but spot was taken. I parked 2 rows behind though. Since you both know each other, let's all meet for a drive maybe? Or cars & coffee too.

Btw there's a new SWP in town, he parks right next to me in the campus lot.

Both those things sound good to me. I just did a proper wash + wax today, so maybe my car will even be clean enough for C&C this weekend.

I was thinking somewhere along the lines of Gibraltar.. I'll bring my DSLR! I was planning on leaving a note so I'll definitely do that now. 4 BRZs cruising

I just washed my car last weekend at Wash n Go... Really subpar

and they claim to not leave swirls but I notice minor ones pop up after the wash. I wish I had a personal driveway & supplies here :|

A cruise sounds good to me. Maybe somewhere with two lanes though?

Sorry to hear that. Next time come use my driveway! I just bought a bunch of cleaning stuff (unfortunately I forgot to get a clay bar, though, so you'll have to bring one of those).

Man, it's funny: cleaning my car today I think I came away more disappointed than anything else... it's quite clean now, but man to do you notice all the little things that are wrong with your car when detailing... such bad orange peel on this paint job! And clear bra collects so much crap and it's really hard (or impossible) to get the stuff off the clear bra. Oh well, I guess its better to have ugly clear bra than a bunch of big paint chips.

Wow, never noticed that my phone did not send my reply.

Anyhow, yeah, a cruise would be fine with me. Sometime before June 14th though cause I am leaving the SB area for a while.. graduating soon.

Heh, let me know next time you decide to give your car a wash, I'll take your offer on that driveway! Yeah, I know what you mean though. After I got my car back from the shop the only swirl marks were on the roof cause they didn't repaint it, but now after that "100% hand car wash" bullcrap I see light swirl marks everywhere. I do have the proper tools to correct swirls at home in LA, but here I'm defenseless.

Please check out the other thread on a BRZ/FR-S group drive on the backroads of Ventura and Santa Barbara counties, and if you're interested please post it, or make alternate suggestions there.

Guys, if you're not already using it for cleaning, I totally love ONR (Optimum No-Rinse). Recommended to me by Rob who owns SB Auto Detailing (old HS friend). Put a half cap full in a 1/2 gal pump up sprayer and fill w/ distilled water. Wash the car in 20-30 min if it is not too dirty, which it usually isn't since I wash it more often with this stuff! I do a section at a time, wash w/ microfiber cloth, follow w/ waffle drying cloth.

Hello 805'ers! I might be going up to SB next weekend to be a tourist. lol. What's good to do there on a day's trip, aside from awesome roads. Well, maybe a couple of roads won't hurt either. lol

Conejo Valley here. I've spotted a few '86's in this area (including a silver one heading north last night).
