10/01/2019 - Back Story
I get an email from my credit card company saying that i'm pre-approved for
(XXXXXX) amount of monies for a new or used car. I've been wanting a BRZ for the past 6 years and thought it was time for me to part out my widebody GC and get something that's reliable, new and updated. I've owned about 9 Subaru's now and a few other cars here and there. Looked online and found the BRZ with 73k miles and a stock photo lol. Color wasn't as advertised so I messaged the dealer. We went back and forth and settled on a price and I bought it before even going to take a look at it in person.
Specs:
2014 Subaru BRZ Limited
61k Paint Code (Dark Grey Metallic or DGM)
Clean title
6 Speed Manual (Who buys an automatic??)
73,957 miles
Here are some stock photo's the dealer sent me:

10/30/2019 - Picking up the car
I took a 3hr shuttle ride to a dealership in my state to pick up a 2014 BRZ limited. Had some tiny imperfections but nothing would offset me from finalizing the purchase. Drove it home 3hrs on the rainiest day possible and was nervous about driving something that's RWD (my first RWD car) in the rain since I've hydroplaned before but had no issues and made it home.
