welcome aswell from myside, and a very good choice you made. I also used to have an SX (S13) and the GT86 does remind me very much of that car.

Same thing happened to me in GA. but it was 3 in the morning and it was a e46 m3. hit a hard bump on the road, hydroplaned into a guard rail. i came out unscratched though even though the damage went pass the radiator. I also moved onto a white out FRS.

Curious as to why didn't you buy a white one to begin with? Oh but you said don't ask
 But now the blue is nice! Just needs some nice set of wheels to finish it off.

I came from an S13 and MK3 supra (underrated car, but stock for stock will murder a 240. Handles well for a heavy car). The FT86 handles a lot like both cars, but more refined. It's just an amazing piece of work, added power doesn't disrupt the handling.
