Picked up my BRZ yesterday and I can now officially join the GBS Mafia. Thank you Subaru for such an amazing car!

Congrats!

Congratulations! I think I saw it yesterday, around 2pm, parked in the "delivery spot" at Dunning. Looked real sharp in the sun.

Congrats! Can I ask you what date they gave you? Just curious, I'm impatiently waiting for my delivery.

Might be faster to check www.cars.com, esp since they pushed the dates out farther recently. That's how I got mine. Drove from fairfax to CT for it. I probably waited like a week to find mine. It's pretty much hit or miss, but will be alot faster imo.

Thanks, helpful tool. I was told my car would arrive between 11/21 - 12/3. I have a deposit on it. I don't mind traveling to pick one up I just want to know if mine will be in on time or not. Essentially, I just want the car in the next week.

The original ETA was the 30th, but then got moved to the 27th. So I almost got it a whole week early. I was super pumped when the dealer said, "We just got a delivery and your BRZ should be on it. Let me check... Yep, it's here!"

One of my favorite things about this car so far is the color and how it changes in the sun and/or shade.

Woooooooo! Congrats bud, that honeymoon phase is so exciting. And so is everything thereafter ;)

Edit: I feel like I only congratulate new purchases if they are a GBS. Nothing personal y'all ;)

Congrats on your new ride. :)

Ha ha. I enjoy learning the little things about her everyday. Like the way she turns on her light and says "Hello" when I walk up to her.

bestwheelbase 11-25-2012 03:27 AM

Congrats!

jimmillion 11-25-2012 03:44 AM

We are a rare breed, but I like that. Also, thanks. Glad she is finally here.

There's at least three wrb brzs by now. Probably more.

I work near UM, live on SE side.

Yea, I know of yours and another one through Dunning, plus the one guy who lives here but bought his in Reno. I'm on the SE side, as well. I work south of the airport.

Congrats! It's a great car and color. I personally love how it looks in different light settings. Like when when I left work today and the big florescent light were shining down on her. Beautiful!

I would be down for that, definitely before it really starts snowing.

dsgerbc 11-27-2012 08:12 PM

What snow? There are freaking showers in the forecast.
That said - there's a meet-up thread in the regional sub-forum.

You guys have so much choice with 864 FR-S and 319 BRZ available new in the showrooms in the US. It will have been almost 7 months when I get mine from signing the contract and it's worse now.

mgobrz 11-27-2012 09:19 PM

I just meant real snow. But yea ha ha.

Napoleon 11-28-2012 12:05 AM

Congrats!

If only I could turn back time and go back to the day I picked up my BRZ (first car purchase as well). I will never forget that amazing day.

LeeMaster 11-28-2012 12:20 AM

Looking good, sometimes I do wish I wouldve gotten a GBS or WRB... either way I love my red. Congrats!

sounds like alot, but its really not that much. I still had to dig for mine and act aggressively to hold mine.

Congrats!!! Hoon responsibly and enjoy the looks.
