Lol I'm not out there often, but if I hear of awesome driving roads around there odds are we will bump into each other 😄

Saw a beautiful Ultramarine FRS with what appeared to be the Five Axis kit, and definitely an exhaust (if not headers/intake also) - sounded great.
It was turning Westbound on Eglinton from Leslie.

Not too long after, saw a hot lava FR-S heading south on Leslie, and then an asphalt FR-S turning from Leslie to York Mills

Feels like more and more Twins around the GTA

Red FRS followed me ln bowmanville. Licence plate TOYBARU or something along that line. Hard to read in my rear view.

krayzie 08-05-2014 10:07 PM

Saw a white BRZ waiting at the lights on Brimwood. Then saw another white FRS with gold rims at ChaTime and Kazuya said that's me you idiot! :D

ToyoburuBRZ 08-05-2014 10:12 PM

Silver frs heading north on woodbine. Waved when I turned on major Mac and you went straight. Really liked the red tail lights. Where did you get that done?

The days of FRS/BRZ scarcity and rarity will soon past.

And then the days of FRS/BRZ scarcity and raity will eventually reappear when cars age and rusting out.

The golden years.

I'm a little sad that the BRZ/FRS is becoming more and more common. Not because of the reason you'd think, like the whole exlusivity and rarity of the car, but the fact that the community seems a less close knit. Waves and headlight flashes are becoming less common, and the community as a whole seems to becoming less friendly.

Though, not this sub-forum of course :thumbup:

That may have been me, depending how south on Bronte you are talking.

I was south of 5 heading towards the QEW

I waved back, but was trying to get out of traffics way so I don't think you saw. I just sprayed it with the red night shade from Canadian tire, then wet sanded them. I could only find 800 grit so I polished them for a while after.

Saw you wave back... I could tell you were waiting for me to pull up beside you so I knew you would be in a hurry.

I liked the tails... I want to do that myself but I'm worried I'll screw it up. I'm not the greatest with spray paint of any sort

It was just south of 6 before lower baseline lol, maybe not you, it was while I was passing the Halton Landfill, or "waste management whatever else the sign says"

I pulled them out when I did them, just a couple of those push on screws and a couple nuts for each light. I don't have much experience with a spray can either, but I figured it couldn't be to hard. I sprayed one darker though, that's why I sanded it down it as I was going to leave it, but it looks better sanded. The only thing is now there's condensation in them again, and I doubt the dealer will replace them under warranty now.

Spotted d18 (i think) at what we thought was supposed to be a meet at Dufferin and Steeles. We were wrong.

Canadian tire isn't in my town (small town problems) so I went to home hardware.

Yonge and Jefferson Forest
 
White FR-S with Toms tails waved out to me (white BRZ) around 8:30pm at Yonge and Jefferson Forest. Was going to wave but didn't realize until it was too late.

I'm around the North Richmond Hill area (Bathurst and King Vaughan). I see a satin pearl green BRZ often in the area.

krayzie 08-07-2014 09:56 PM

Slammed WRB BRZ @ iGarage

Marvin from time G 08-07-2014 10:30 PM

I pass a Silver BRZ on McLaughlin several times a week, Williams Parkway area. Anyone on here from Brampton?

Cliu91 08-08-2014 08:42 AM

Black FRS going down Erin Mills Pkwy in Mississauga. Looked completely stock. Didn't manage to wave as you were the furthest lane from me and about to turn.

Yup. I'm from Brampton. I'm in Williams Parkway and Chincacousey, but in a WRB BRZ. I see a few Bramptonians around here.

Parked beside a WRB at the plaza on Queen and Tobram in Brampton. Wanted to wait for the owner to come out but that felt a bit weird LOL.

Taro 08-09-2014 02:44 PM

There's a black FRS that lives off of Castlemore near me. It's parked in a driveway with 3 other cars. I saw it today equipped with a bike rack? I know it's one of you guys.

nocwage 08-09-2014 04:42 PM

Black BRZ in Milton at Walmart next to my Ultramarine FR-S

Taro 08-09-2014 10:53 PM

Alpha motorsport BRZ from our local meets outside of the Keg. I'm just next door beside the other R8. :D

logoris 08-10-2014 12:14 PM

Saw a wrapped matte black or grey on 16th about 1:40am in richmond hill

Sent from my Galaxy Note

Martinius 08-10-2014 07:04 PM

Ultramarine FR-S yesterday on the QEW towards Hamilton from Niagara Falls, caught up to you and drove together, then I continued to Toronto and you took the exit to Hamilton as we waved.

Today, WRB BRZ license plate "EXAULT" atop of the parking structure in SQ1, parked in front of me. Now I know how the Tom's look in person, gonna be ordering them soon :)

eddieflyinv 08-11-2014 06:39 PM

Spotted a pearl white FRS at a Pioneer on Colborne Street outside of Brantford, you were getting in your car just as I was pulling into the parking lot,
