Geeez... I'm not even at 4k miles yet and I've had mine since May.

How long ago did you buy your BRZ?

speargunsandracecars 10-11-2012 01:14 AM

Badass! You're using the car the way it was intended to be used. I applaud you sir.

Chee-Hu 10-11-2012 01:20 AM

Very nice. I wish I had that much time to enjoy these fun cars.

I like your attitude, when i had my itr it was, dont scratch this, dont touch that, always checking the window at the restaurant, with my frs i drive the shit out of it, do a couple doughnuts for my friends, and park it wet and covered in dirt....this is my favorite car by far.

For some reason i am perfectly fine with the stock horsepower, i can scare myself enough as it is in stock form, wheels and tires in the future but i dont feel the need for 400hp in this car....weird

Superhatch 10-11-2012 08:16 AM

Hollywood. I agree 100%! This car was meant to be driven! I've been like that with other cars as well, and while I still obsess over the car, I don't obsess over imperfections that happen from daily driving it. I still keep it clean, and it probably gets more attention than many other cars.,.but you know it gets driven hard.

I picked it up on May 29th.

You also have to keep in mind that ITRs are magnets for thiefs. As much as I want one, I'd be just as paranoid as you are driving it anywhere and leaving it.

Glad you're enjoying your FR-S though. :)
