FWIW, I personally wouldn't have a problem with a car with 7k miles over 10 years. That seems like enough use to keep things lubricated, and to have worked out the kinks. I've owned a number of cars...

I stand corrected. I don't frequent BaT that often and hadn't seem the other BRZ's sold there. I thought the one I saw was the first.

It's nice to see a still in production car, and a relatively...

I completely agree the price on this BRZ seemed reasonable, which itself is unusual on BaT.

It wasn't the BRZ's price I was referring to in commenting on the batshit crazy money people often pay,...

It wasn't out of concern of oil usage that I was thinking of an AOS. It was because of the potential for carbon build-up on the intake valves in a direct injection engine. I didn't realize the 2nd...

AOS/catch can?

Does anyone make (and has anyone installed) an AOS or an oil catch can on a 2nd gen BRZ?

I put a Crawford AOS on my 2019, was wondering if there’s an equivalent for the 2nd gen car.

Thanks!

Please share your observations and experiences of the '23 vs. your old '17. I'm in a similar boat, own and absolutely love my '19, but have been searching and yearning for a 2nd gen car.

Thanks!

How on Earth did you find a '23?! I thought they were sold out long ago. Did you order it a while back? Was this a recent delivery?

Anyone paint or wrap stock Limited rear spoiler?

I love the lines on my car. But the only thing I think detracts from the appearance is the rear trunk lid spoiler on the Limited. It’s like a wart on otherwise svelte lines.

Probably, but it’s hard for me to justify either spending $100, or the effort to remove the entire starter switch, just to get a red button.
