Question - do the fog lights have a switch that allows you to keep them on or do you have to turn them on every time you turn on the headlights?

Congrats! Officially hating. Lol Keep us posted with upgrades and other info.

Bad Ass ! Congratulations. I love that car the fog lights and turn signals look awesome. And I have to say that the chrome looks good. I thought it might look cheap too.

Congrats, the chrome trim looks really good! Kinda regret not ordering it, but at least it'll be an easy mod I can always do later :)

I almost felt that the 135i was too easy to drive and must have beeing doing some magic between my hands & feet and the tires. I don't get that feeling with the BRZ. The BRZ seems fully connected, but maybe the lower power or lower weight means that you don't get the super jerky gear changes. It didn't bother me, but I should mention that gear shift lever vibrates a bit. I know this can drive some people nuts, but I don't mind. If I recall from my drive, you can *see* it shake a bit, but only if you're paying attention. On the flip side, with your hand on the lever you can definitely feel it.

Very well-written English and great review. The 1-2 upshift of 370Z is terrible. I must agree with you that it's among the worst. I'm very interested in test-driving this car whenever my local dealer actually get one. Anyway, congrats!!

There's a fog-light ring just past the regular headlight nub. I'm pretty positive you can turn it off.

How many miles were on the odometer when you got it?

Once again, OP. I hate you :) <3 <3
