Finally brought my first sports car 😊
 
Well, Here she is home after picking her up from the owner with only 1,300 miles on the odometer and a full-day drive!

This is my first ever sports car, and also my first ever car purchased loan-free with my own cash. So its really special to me.

Initial impressions after going around the day in and out of traffic - the power is more than enough for the city. Went the right choice with the AT, the perfect downshifts are beautiful and the drive is absolutely stress-free. Its such a great package that you come home feeling great. Unlike the e55 amg our family had where you'd come home feeling tired from the tense-thrill and the body roll. In the BRZ, the thrill is genuinely exciting; It demands more from you but guides you in to the excitement at a safe pace where you actually have more time to enjoy every moment.

I ordered now a rexspeed concave blue side mirror and an oem shark antenna as my first stock mods! :) headed to the detailers on Tuesday to remove the nasty glass watermarks!

Congratulations. You'll have to change the 'drives' part of your profile now.

:thumbsup:

Congrats pare sa wakas na pagbili ka ng BRZ at medyo maayos at malinis pa rin :)

Good to see you've found "the one" after looking at so many!

You should be proud of yourself for managing that transaction! Be sure to toast yourself when you change your profile . . . a beer will do fine.

By the way, I have the rexspeed mirrors, too. I love them. Very high quality, but beware! Check over your left shoulder when you see something in your left mirror. After a couple of years of using them, I can still get surprised by how much closer that truck really is than how it looks in the mirror.

Welcome aboard the twin club, may all your car journeys end with a smile.

Quick question: Can anyone tell me what those the small rectangles are for below each headlight cluster?
