Nope, just a short piece of Military Road in Puyallup, WA, about a half mile from where I live ....

Be aware of the "mod bug" ..... you'll know if you've been bitten if you start ordering mods ..... before you get the car ....

New to the forums, been a reader for a while.

I work at a Subaru dealer, ever since the BRZ came out I've been pondering trading in my 04 STi for one.

Well pulled the trigger on that today while at work, getting a '13 GBS Limited 6MT

ETA is 9-3-13

excited

Can't wait for this car to go production. 2011 seems way too long away! But hopefully we can all pass that time together by sharing info and discussions until it's finally on the streets.

Be sure to bookmark the homepage blog. I've been a blogger for years so will be updating the blog with any new FT86 developments, info, and news.

Again, welcome and looking forward to chatting with you all.

Greetings from South Jersey!

After about a year of lurking, finally picked up a 10 Release Series FR-S on Friday and have been loving every mile.

Can't wait to finally start contributing to this community and confess my addiction to this vehicle.

Hello everyone, been around for more than a year but didn't want to sign up until I got my FR-S.
Just pick up a whiteout last week for under $24,500 with touchscreen, all season tire, and got them to put spoiler for me for free.
Want to post and picture but don't know how yet.
Hope to meet some cool people here.

Hey Everyone!

Hey everyone! name's Orland. I'm pretty excited to be part of this club.. Just picked up my 2013 FR-S (Hot Lava) on the 17th as a birthday present to myself lol. Absolutely love this fun little car. Unfortunately I had already gotten a tiny door ding from someone opening up their door to my passenger side not even 3 days of owning it.... . It's funny how I've tried to park the car away from any heavy traffic'd areas and the one time I had no option sure enough ended up with a tiny ding. Anyway getting it removed tomorrow!! Stay clear from the idiots who don't know how to open doors everyone!! lol

Well hello, OrlandGabeFRS and welcome .....

Happy birthday! WOW, are you in for some fun! ...

Yep, I've found (as you did) the FR-S is rather thin skinned. You may wish to keep a PDR person on retainer ...

Within a week of ownership, my lovely wife put the first ding in out car by barely touching it with her car door, in our garage. A few days later, I inflicter another ding by "touching" it with a RubberMaid trach can, while it was in the garage.

As far as parking in parking lots, good luck with that! I've found that no matter where you park, a big, ugly pickup truck will find you ....

Oh wow lol yeah, i've noticed it's prone and inevitable to such occurrences, did you have a PDR guy fix it up and if so were the dings removed rather easily?
