Kerune's intro to project cars - CWP BRZ
2015 BRZ Limited 6MT in Crystal White Pearl.
Named her KhaleeZ, kidding though unfortunately it's not really named although white is the epitome of Khaleesi, lol. Purchased in May 2015, previously owned a 2014 Honda Accord Sport in White Orchid Pearl as pictured below. Owned it considering being a sales rep with Honda and got a great deal, although there's something about buying a new car in 4cyl and auto combined that's underwhelming. Bought the BRZ w/ the Honda left to the family. Perks of internet sales mgr income and credit in your low 20s but I'm fairly surprised to be approved for a 2nd auto loan. ![]() Although I originally leaned towards WRB - the color throws me off when it's not under direct sunlight and night lighting. Fortunately I appreciate the BRZ front, and I highly prefer the Subaru badging to begin with. If I bought an FRS I'd likely have a TRD or RB kit on it already with the headlights swapped out first thing, thankfully we can throw on an STI lip on this and call it a day, simple & clean. Decent pic portraying the good side of pearl white, even at stock. ![]() Trouble with the 86 being new to the market is that while you benefit from researching the car and aftermarket options on the forum, there's a compromise where you see the mods you want on a daily basis. I did keep it stock for a month but I did what any member with some money sitting around would do. Only 4 months in and I'm ready to turn the pace down significantly although there are a few things lined up - ![]() Mod List - bolded being mods either planned/thought about Exterior/Interior - Tom's JDM Tail Lights (previously clear Valenti's) - Diode Dynamics Stg2 LED Cool White trunk/license/door/vanity/dome lights - Diode Dynamics 6000K Cool White fog lights - Diode Dynamics Always-On BRZ module - 35% front windows/5% rear tint - STi Front Lip kit - Advan-emotion rear diffuser - WORK x Stancenation CR2P Limited Run 18x9.5 Wheels (purchased) - Hankook V12 evos (when wheels arrive) Originally wanted Volks TE37SLs in Pressed Graphite but these were tough to pass on as a limited run and there wasn't much in stock for the Volks. ![]() Performance/Bolt-on/Suspension/Exhaust - OpenFlash Tablet stg1 tune - Tein's Street Flex Coilovers - AFE Magnumflow Drop-in Filter - ARK Grip Catback Exhaust - Flex-fuel kit + ECUtek (low priority, still unsure) - Jackson Racing Supercharger To be updated Last edited by Kerune; 08-20-2015 at 02:06 AM. |
