Nah. It's only been 13 days since I placed my order and it already feels like an eternity. I probably won't hear about an update until mid to late July at the earliest.

Spending less time on the forums helps my patience level.

Anyone having that low idle/stall issue I've been reading about in the General Forum?

I have the low idle 'issue' but never stalls. I don't pay any mind to it, just filled up on 93 (Shell V-Power) so I know it's not a gas issue. The car doesn't shake violently or anything. The best analogy I could give you would be it's like someone dozing off (sub-600 rpm) and their head begins to droop, and then they wake up from it (1k+ rpm)... repeat every several seconds.

That's what I was expecting, and it's very similar or identical to a problem I was having with my RX-8. With the RX-8 it was the ignition coils going bad, a common problem with the Renesis. Hopefully this gets looked into soon.

Spotted a Silver BRZ off of Creedmoor RD next to the entrance to 540. They were headed south. Driver looked older and wasn't paying attention because he didn't see me.

That's really close to me, Dan, but i don't have mine yet. Who was it that mentioned Living near creedmoor/strickland? I wonder if there'll be two brzs running around my neighborhood.

I'm not far. I live off of Quail Ridge and Spring Forest. I drive that way every morning to jump on 540 west. Doubt the guy is on the forums. Seemed to be about 40+ maybe 50+ hard to tell.

Was it a premium? Wonder if performance sold their showroom model.

I THINK it was. But can't say for sure since I was turning left on the on ramp and it was about 2-3 cars back in the right lane going straight so I couldn't see behind it.

It's the Whiteout color, I believe it is Satin White Pearl.
