This is my first journal that i've done, it will be a way for me to track what i've done to the car and share with everyone! I do plan on some subtle mods, suspension and simple bolt on's for now. I got clear bra put on the entire front end, front quarter panels & both side mirrors from the dealer.
Well here are some pictures of the BRZ next to my STI which i traded in for the car. I bought this car from Mark Miller Subaru in Salt Lake City Utah, yesterday 19 Nov. I went through a salesmen by the name of Doug. I can't say enough about the guy! He was easy to deal with and hassle free. He was also sure to inform me of the entire process and made sure i knew all angles. He went out of his way to call my local DMV as well to make sure we did the taxes right since i bought from out of state. When i was wanting to get the clear bra put on before i went to look at the car he warned me that it would be out of my pocket if i backed out of the deal. He would have put it on still if i wanted but was wanting to warn me. Good guy, he could've shafted me into a corner and pushed that i get it put on early. Their finance guy, Keith, was also a great pleasure to deal with! All around good buying experience. I only wish i would've sold my car locally instead of a trade, didn't get as much as i wanted but that's always the case when trading into the dealer. Still can't recomend them enough!
My mods will come slow and steady for me, mostly due to funding and just wanting to enjoy the car each stage. I also have an extended warranty and i'll want to make sure any potential bugs won't come my way to void the warranty. Suspension is more of where i'm wanting to plug into though, the car handles great stock so aftermarket upgrades will be interesting. Supercharger kit will be looking nice once the car is close to pay off, well into the future for that though.

Less then 24 hours in my posession and the "We don't need no stinkin badges!" hit me lol
