FS: 2013 BRZ Limited - WRB, 6MT, Approx. 29,500 miles, Tampa FL
I bought the car back in May 2012 (first truckload to Florida, first one to get to my dealership) and enjoyed and drove the heck out of it (in terms of using the car, not beating on it or destroying it) for the first year and a half (22,000 or 23,000 miles during that time period). About a year and a half ago I sold my ITR and bought a daily driver to prevent damage to the BRZ (by far the longest I've owned a car without door dings, I park the car where someone would have to be an idiot - or malicious - to ding it). Well the M3 turned out to be a solid daily driver and due to the hassle of getting the BRZ out of the garage (track car was in front of it with a constantly dead battery) I ended up changing the oil more often than driving the car. The car is a Florida car so no rust issues at all obviously. No road salt or any crap like that. As a bonus, the car was in the garage with the battery disconnected for awhile after I cancelled XM radio... over a year later it's still working... shhhhh
Also the car has not been involved in any accidents (unless you want to count the 1mph bumper scratch in the work parking garage).Ownership log: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7800 What did I use the car for? I used it as a daily driver for a year and a half, an autocross car (maybe 6 events) and a track day car (not sure how many events, a fair amount but I don't drive 10/10ths and yes I know the difference). The car has seen rain, but has never seen snow. It's been garaged at work and at home every day I've had it. What mods does the car have or has it had? Currently it has a shift knob, Perrin front control arm brace, TCS aluminum steering rack bushings, Whiteline front top hats (increased caster and camber) and a Nameless performance axle back exhaust. OEM bits that were extra are the trunk mat, fold out bumper protector, homelink rear view mirror and a brand new set of floor mats (I always buy a spare set for my cars - they'll need them eventually). Previously it has had Eibach R2 coilovers, Eibach sportline springs, Essex Competition Sprint brake kit, FA20Club intake (briefly), Defi oil temp and pressure gauges (sensors installed in a sandwich plate) and a Mocal oil cooler. I had bought some other parts but never installed them and have sold them. Oh and a few sets of wheels, a set of Kosei K4R's can be included (17x8, no tires) although one wheel has a crack. Still, $200 or whatever to replace that one is cheaper than a new set of 4. You have to take the cracked one too Oh it has tint also, maximum legal in Florida. Warranty items: -Ignition coils -Transmission (6th gear whine - pretty common issue but most probably don't replace the trans) -Battery -Power window controls -About 300 high pressure fuel pumps - ok that's exaggerated. -Tail lights Maintenance: -Engine oil was changed with filters every 3K at most. Usually much quicker than that. One oil change had maybe 300 miles on it. Lately it's been changed by time (every quarter) instead of mileage. Subaru filters (the proper one) used throughout except for one K&N filter when I ran out of Subaru ones). -Diff fluid is Motul 300V. -Trans fluid was Motul, now it's an OEM fill (due to new transmission which has maybe a couple hundred miles on it... but probably about 50-70) so the awesomely difficult-when-cold 2nd gear shift is back. -Engine and Diff fluids will be changed before it's handed over to its new owner. I will use whatever fluids you want unless you want some liquid gold in there I can change the trans fluid if desired also but some may want that pretty fresh factory fill.Issues/Paint/etc.: -No real issues. -There's a bit of wear on the seat bolsters (color rubbed off?). -Repainted both bumpers to eliminate the bulk of the rock chips up front and I did an Oops when I backed into the wall at work (rough parking garage, impact was 1 mph crawling backing up, made a bunch of little tiny rock chips). Touch up used a bit elsewhere for rock chips. -I do need to wash and wax it again ![]() -It has low mileage OEM tires on it again.. that's kind of a negative for some. Price: $20,500 OBO - I do want to sell the car but I'm also not in a rush. I don't mind driving it every other weekend around town as I still love the car, it just costs me too much money when I can use my completely paid for cars instead - and I don't give a crap if someone slams into the M3 where I would care if they hit the BRZ. Pics: (I also need to take some better pics - these were some quick iphone ones, need to get the car up on the lift and really take pics of it - might be able to do so thing weekend) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Didn't get a chance to take more pics this weekend. I will soon. At that point it will probably go up on eBay and Autotrader.

If the car is still available in July, I would definitely go for it, since I won't be in the U.S. until the end of July, but in the mean time, BUMP,and GLWS

... sigh why are all the WRB's on the wrong side of the country. All aside, great documentation/detail, I can already tell you are an honest and upfront guy. GLWS.

Car is sold to another forum member.
Enjoy the car! And I grabbed another MR2 Turbo today also. Might become the new DD and I might sell the M3. Who knows, I have a serious car addiction problem I think.
