Nice, I live in Novato. Hopefully I can get my hands on a brz and be spotted around marin also

It seems there's not very many East Bay'ers in here, I feel left out...

Hit 1000 miles already. Driving around Berkeley, Oakland, San Jose area mainly.

^Cool, One of these days, we'll run into each other in Oakland/Berkeley I guess

BigFatFlip · 06-21-2012, 12:57 PM

Saw a Firestorm on the corner of my eye this morning on my way to work going down Otis Dr. in Alameda (I think we were both going way over 25 mph, so sorry if I didn't honk/flash).

"Guy in a green van stopped at the light telling me his was coming in a few weeks", hope that was you, enjoy

Dang, 1000 already? I'm at like 640. I guess I need to drive more.

uspspro · 06-21-2012, 01:27 PM

I'm just over 600.

Rode my bike to work last couple of days... need to stay in shape despite the BRZ

Re~Mix · 06-21-2012, 04:19 PM

Spotted a white BRZ near Lawrence Expressway and HWY 101. Was in my FRS and shouted out w/o response...

For the record, I haven't seen -any- other BRZ's in SF. Any other SFers have theirs yet?

I get the strangest/greatest looks wherever I go in the city, though. It's awesome and nerve-wracking at the same time... Very glad I have my own garage to park the car in. Alleviates a bit of paranoia from all the potential theft.

Might have been me, between 1-2pm? I went to adamsons french dip for lunch and was driving in that area back to work. I was blasting music and thought i heard a honk but i tune it out alot of the time.

And yeah having 2 cars stolen while living in SF over a 4 year period, I wouldnt trust parking it on the street either.

Not sure, this was a bit later in the day near the Nvidia campus.

Trikle · 06-22-2012, 01:15 AM

Probably me, I work there.

Nice, the white car looked clean and a lot better in person than what I had imagined. Any plans for it, or just enjoying the ride?

Trikle · 06-22-2012, 01:28 AM

Going to try and get the windows tinted tomorrow, and do that 3M clear coat thing or whatever that is, seems like a good idea. Other than that im not a huge car guy, so plan on lurking the forums until i see things i like and look into them lol.
