I picked her up at about noon today and just parked her safely in the garage. 11 miles at delivery, 100 miles at the end of the day. What a great car!

Is that first garage, with the mural in the back, your personal garage? It's so clean and nice. Very jealous. Also jelly of that Ferrari :P

Yeah, I have offered other FR-S or BRZ owners in the Portland area use of the garage:

There are two Ferraris in the background, the 458 Italia you can see, and an F430 Spyder. They are owned by the family that owns Gran Turismo, the US's oldest operating Ferrari dealership which is here in Portland. Nice cars!

Ok bouncing back a bit within the thread, but the DragLab Van suddenly flashed me WAY back! Some good times back then! Still great to see all of us still in some form of the same game! Thanks for memory man!






Now back to drooling over your new car ! ;-)

What's gonna be the first mod?

Awesome car! I saw a 6mt Asphalt FR-S at a local dealer today and it looked great. I've seen that Ferrari 458 driving up I5 through Eugene. It goes to Cars and Coffee in south Portland.

Congrats on the car and I'm jealous of your garage!

In mine I can barely fit my GTI and open the fridge which against the rear wall (the FR-S is ~1 inch longer).

Can't wait to get my Asphalt 6mt FR-S!

Adam! Long time no see! I should stop by the shop, haven't been out there forever.

blu_, I already debadged the rear and have suspension on the way. Researching tint shops and I am planning to smoke the tails. I'd also like to black out the chrome inside of the headlights, but I have never done that before so I am going to look for someone who could help me.

CSSM, I think that the Tonkin family lives in my condo building because they have an entire stable of cars here with Tonkin plate frames.

johk, my man cave is something I've always wanted and I'm looking forward to hanging out with some other FR-S/BRZ guys in there this summer as we mod our rides.

THANK YOU for stopping by today! I felt terrible that I wasn't there to say HI! So now it's on me to make time to meet up with you! Maybe come out to your garage one night with some other BRZ / FRS peeps!

Have a great weekend and chat soon!

Sounds good. I need one of those front license plate kits, haha, so my visit wasn't entirely nostalgic. The shop you've got now is pretty legit! Talk to you soon, man.

Wheels went on today. 17x9 Rota Torque +30 offset with stretched 215/50s.

Darren: any shots you can share looking from the back or front of the car? Nice choice on the wheels!

Darren what kind of rates relatively where you paying on insurance?

Also, did you do to cars and coffee this morning and what did you think of it?
