Got my BRZ just over a week ago and have already had some incredible moments, topped off with horrible failure, so I thought I'd see if anyone else has any stories to share.

Amazing as in you did something abnormally cool/skillful, preferably with onlookers, or just anything that stands out in your memory in a positive way.

Humiliating as in you made some kind of error, had mechanical failure, wrecked, or just plain clumsiness.

Give an example of either one, or both, whichever you prefer.

I'll obviously start.

Amazing- Having just gotten the car and accidentally drift a turn, realize how easy it is, and begin to do it at will at a couple select turns near my house. I remember one in particular where I slid around the turn sideways, swiveled a little while burning out, and straitening out and continued down the road with a couple cars far enough to be safe but close enough to see.

Humiliating- Doing it in the rain and accidentally giving it what I would when it's dry, doing a complete 180, deer in headlights and let it stall as it screeches to a stop, car won't start, cars start coming. Luckily I put on my flashers, got it started, and got out of the way, but it was mortifying none the less.

I haven't drifted since...
