I saw three white BRZs yesterday. One at work, one on 32 WB pulled over by the police, and one going south on 170, all with stock wheels.

Had a slightly unsavory encounter with a White 5-Axis FR-S yesterday.

It was pouring out. I was doing my normal speed on route 200 (I don't granny it) and this guy comes barreling up behind me. He must have been doing 100+. There was a cop ahead, so I slowed down and flashed my brake lights so he knew to slow down. He didn't until he got right on my ass. I'm surprised he didn't get pulled over. He pulled next to me and we waved. I gave him the benefit of the doubt that he just didn't see the cop and wanted to come say hi to another twin. We both got through the little traffic that there was and he just bolts off again. He must have been pretty bad at getting through traffic because I ended up passing him again. He bolted off again. This happened a few more times. Then I see him quickly slide into the middle lane, then back to the left about 500 feet in front of me, over a crest. I slowed down because I thought he was dodging something, but nope. There was nothing on the road. I think he just lost it in the rain being an idiot, and at really high speeds. I'm surprised he recovered. Guys like this give us a bad name. Come on man, slow it down a little bit. At least to a controllable point.

Dunno who that is, but they must work there. I park next to him/her every time I'm in that lot as well. IIRC it has a Stohlman license plate frame (or was it a badge?), which no self-respecting member of this forum would wear! At least they park away from the masses, like a good Twin owner should.

Silver FRS with a window sticker that said "Ammo" on it in Tysons around 5:30.

Raven FR-S with Toyota badging spotted me on post at Pullen Field heading towards the field house. He rolled down his windows and gave me a thumbs up. Caught me by surprise but I was able to return the gesture.

He was like:

I work at the hospital and the only other one I've seen is a black BRZ who works in my department. I haven't seen any others in the garages, but then again I don't spend a lot of time on post. I just work and go home.

Ultramarine FR-S on I-270 N. near Gaithersburg @ 4pm today. I know you saw my car, but not sure if you saw me wave.
