@TRD.
Thanks a lot! Ill save my performance differences until I am done with the 1000 mile break in. In terms of my drive back home to night, I was very happy.
The negatives-
1)Miss my steering wheel audio controls. Ill get used to it.
2)The stereo system is a significant step down from the Gs Bose system. I am not an audiophile or anything but I immediately noticed the difference.
The Positives-
1)I felt more comfortable in the BRZ which was the 2nd 5 hours of a 10 hour round trip, which is impressive.
2)Technology was astonishing. My 2007 G could not compare. The Bluetooth streaming is amazing! To me the touch screen Nav/Audio controls are great. I know People have been hating on this but compared to what I have had, it is great. The people that I called with the phone function said that I sounded great.
3)I made the 330 mile trip on one tank but I stopped at a couple gas stations. The bystander awe factor was defiantly up. I think it is a combination of the WR blue and unique look.
@jflogerzi
You wanted the WRB? Instead of being more patient I drove further to get mine. It is hard to hold out!!!
My first mod is to get the clear side markers. After that, Intake. Then Exhaust. I opted in for extended warranty. So I want to make sure there wont be a conflict between the dealers and my mods. Any info on this??? I was thinking Injen intake and SRT header back exhaust. Are those going to become warranty problems?
