Got mine!
 
Just got back to Long Island, NY from Manchester, New Hampshire where I picked up my DGM BRZ Limited! Still having a heck of a time getting used to the high engagement point of the clutch, but the BRZ is an absolutely blast to drive.

The Sat Nav wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but the head unit's overall user interface experience leaves much to be desired. That might be the first major thing I replace, perhaps with a Kenwood or an Alpine.

Getting Mr. Sparkle to do the opti-coat tomorrow, so I'll post pictures once that's all taken care of, right now she's quite a mess - having driven through a bunch of rainstorms in Mass and Connecticut.

Glad to officially be part of the club!

Looks like you came through my neck of the woods, depending on what route you took, to pick up your BRZ.

Had I known, I would've gathered as many FT86 members as possible to form a convoy and cruise through MA on your ride south :thumbsup:

In any case, Congrats!:thumbup:

Obligatory pics now that she's cleaned up and opti-coated (fellow Long Islanders looking for a good detailer, feel free to PM me about my experience with Mr. Sparkle.) Sorry for the crappy smartphone pics, all I had ready at the moment.

Drove it from the dealer in New Hampshire through a few hours of rainstorms in Massachusetts and Connecticut before arriving home in NY. The detailer worked on the car in my driveway the very next day :)
