Does your BRZ still turn heads?
This is going to sound like a bit of a humble brag, but here it goes.
I've had my BRZ for two years now, and since new I've seen a people looking at my car on the highway (sometimes passengers craning their necks to look at it as the car passes me). I even still get compliments on it at the gas station, parking lots, etc. When the car was brand new this was understandable. I had one of the first in the DMV region. But now BRZs/FR-Ss are all over the place, so my car is nothing special. For what it's worth, my car is always clean and shiny when I have it out. I don't drive it in the rain (or Winter) unless necessary. Granted, my car is modified, but it's very mild, so I don't think that's it. Does anyone else experience this, even after the car has been out for two years?

This seems like the other ones
http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=64355 What do people say about your car? http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34696 "Sweet Ride Bro" Encounters butto answer you, where I live there isn't a BRZ and FR-S. There's one in a town 20 minutes away. There's a few about 30 minutes away. So, many people come up to me and talk about it because they've seen the FR-S Commercial or they see the pictures online, but haven't seen them in person. When I'm parked outside a lot of people seem to stare. I am lowered though about 2" or so, but still have stock wheels. I enjoy seeing pictures being taken of my car and cops asking about it. It's entertaining. |

I get people talking to me in parking lots all over the place, and a lot of dirty envious looks from the younger crowd here in Calgary. In rural BC where my parents have a holiday home its either rednecks who don't look twice or people with their eyes popping out of their heads...
|
Here in Chattanooga I still get the "breakneck looks", those who speed up to take a look to see what the car is, and then finally the rednecks in diesel dullies that think I'll drag race them down a public highway.
Car has no real modifications except for a Perrin exhaust, and to my anger, seems to attract people when its dirtier than when clean... I guess "Because Subaru?" lol |
Mine turns cops heads. Cuz LOUD
|
I still get lots of looks and comments. I get less crazy interest now though, not like when it first came out (I got my silver Aug '12). I would have people pull over, get out of their cars, walk around it, take pictures, etc.
|
I still get a lot of looks because although it's been out for 2 years or so, it's still relatively uncommon.
I see guys in their M6's staring, or people taking pictures, and occasionally get the "Breakneck" type of look on the highway. I get some gas attendants chatting me up sometimes, still. Not modified, just exhaust, taillights and a track decal xD |
Just yesterday the car next to me rolled down the window to say nice car, granted driver was in a ghetto'd out Honda, but still. There's a few popping up in my area but still not too many, I see at least 5 tCs during my commute and I'm lucky to see one BRZ/FR-S.
|
I get a few people that say nice car. That's it, but then again, everyone and their mother owns a BRZ/FRS in California.
|
Almost every week I get one of these. Not a ton in my area but a few. I had a taxi driver follow me off the highway and beep at me at a stoplight to ask me what kind of car I had and tell me how good it looked. That was three days ago.
Then two days ago had a guy at a gas station come up to me asking what it was, how nice it was, etc lol. I'm actually kind of surprised as well that people still come up to me and ask me what car it is etc. Its very flattering honestly lol. I am a bit more modded from the normal brz/frs but not that much really. Our cars just are still relatively new and are unlike most cars out there so I guess people tend to notice them more. |
Winter driving in northern muskoka, masewell be a fucking unicorn I ride to work.
|
I am naturally scary and unapproachable. So only a few people work up the coyrage for an akward talk.
Cool car! I bet its fast. Well not really, you see sir this was a joint venture by suburu and toyota designed to be a gr.... oh he walked off |
