I had a 2009 Corolla before the BRZ, and my insurance dropped 300$. No idea why.

Definitely consider a BRZ. It's only a couple grand over the FRS, but has a bunch of other niceties .

I'm getting a new tail light today and a new ECU to fix the idle dip today...

They got me a Nissan Versa, I hate it. Wish me luck!

Tail light had about half an inch of water on the bottom, never noticed until last week.

I didn't want to post a new thread... don't really want to start too much #$%. It's interesting to see the 'other side'. Seems like muscle car fans (mustangs in this example) lump us with 130hp civics I'm unsure about the truth of the story, but at least most of us know that we only have 200hp and understand how much that really is.

Just thought this was interesting

*Warning*... a bit rage, but there a few level heads in the thread:

lol a Versa! At the very least, they could've lent you a Corolla or something Toyota related.

Yea, I got a new Camry when I got my CEL. It seems like they ran out of cars this morning so they're contracting Enterprise.

Ah I see. Any loaner is better than being without a car for a day.

@Books, That's why I never gave it a thought to joining any of those type of forums.

HELP!!!!! Couple of seagulls danced the nutcracker on my car! I don't know if I should buff it out myself. If it was a small section I probably would, but the damage covers the roof. Does anybody know a body shop and how much it might be? ( seagulls also pick up there clams and drop them to open them then eat them on the cars!!!)
