[QUOTE=Oz;410546]Fingers crossed.

You guys think i should wait till i get the car to get winter tires? I'd probably just go with the specs that Zootramp provided above.

Congrats on ordering the car OZ. For what it is worht, I was watching a car show last night on winter tires. Michelin X ice 3 were rated the top winter tire. The journalists said they were much better than the Blizzacks.

On a side note. be thankful for where we live. Just got back from LA and there is no room anywhere to let this car perform the way it should.
One constant traffic jam.

Did not go to any Scion dealerships Mike.

Nice picture Mike! A couple of weeks ago I saw a black BRZ driving on Terry Fox in Kanata (I was stopped at the corner on Legget) - we waved at each other. I wonder if it was someone on this forum?

CBR600RR, I was at Centrum yesterday and I saw a raven frs. Yours?

I creepily drove around the car and stared for a few seconds before I felt like a weirdo and left.


Nice car. Can't wait. My sales guy told me they finally submitted my order, so that is progress I guess!
