Hey guys, I'm picking up my BRZ in a couple hours

Anything else I need to know thats important to know?? anything I need to look for?

Should Iask for any freebies at the dealership?

Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!

Make sure you do a real good inspection before you drive off the lot. Inside and out

+1 on no drilling for plate

Check for scratches and bubbles in the paint.

Check the tire pressure... when I got mine...they were at 30 PSI.. also check to make sure they installed those rubber gromments under the car to prevent water from getting in.

Check the fluids and make sure they're at the full mark.

Very hard to do for the delivery (I tried).

Plus, you really need to see a clean, washed, car to see any damage which occurred at the port, in transit, or when they cleaned and washed it. It's a Catch-22...

Ask for at least 1 free oil change and a full tank of gas (make sure they put in premium, tell them you want to see the receipt).

oh and do not let them intall the front plate for you, otherwise they'll drill into the front fascia.

This.

I sprinted out of the Finance room to make sure that they don't drilling my fucking bumper.

make sure they dont drill into the bumper. A full tank of gas should be a given so make sure they do it. As for freebies maybe get a keychain or something.

I told them the deal was off if they washed it. I also told them I would say they washed it on my survey...that's what they were worried about. I got lucky that my paint was flawless once I washed it. I do see what you mean about being able to inspect it.

You should get at least 3 free oil changes. Actually 4 I think. Dont know exactly I only have 1700 miles so far. Is it a 13 or a 14? Where are you purchasing the car from? And as stated above, bring a friend and a flashlight if you are going at night. Oh and make sure the code for the stereo is in the car. If you disconnect the battery for long enough you will need it. Congrats.

JS + BRZ · 01-16-2014, 06:34 PM

Don't we all get 2 yr free maintenance plan?

Nope we don't all get this, they probably sneaked it in with your car price.

Those rubber gasket things in the glove box, have them make sure its plugged in or install them yourself. Hole is in front of both back wheels at the bottom.
