I think we should all seek out expensive coupes to park beside and post pictures. Who can find the most expensive "competitor" to our BRZ/FRS and snap the photo?

Extra points for same colour pics.

I pulled up behind a Maserati Gran Turismo a few weeks back and was amazed how much the body lines resemble the twins. It was definitely bigger though.

At a meet, there was a Ferrari that drove by me and circled the block. After it did its round, it came back and decided to park in front of me. Likely because it was the only open spot but I like to think otherwise. :3

Very cool! I've had some really great cars park next to me (Vanquish, a few Teslas, always a few new STIs, a 458, and a new M6 come to mind), and I'll often park next to them if for no other reason than to help them feel comfortable that someone who cares about not dinging their door parked next to them. And I appreciate it when they park next to me too.

A good friend of mine pointed out that the Audi TT also looks quite like the BRZ.

One of the most attractive features of the BRZ/FRS is the pair of front fenders as seen from the driver's seat, as well as from the outside. As you corner hard those twin guides help you aim the car.

Many attractive cars have used that shape in one form or another with perhaps the "birdcage" Maserati Tipo 61 being the prettiest.

Yes! There is quite a phenomenon with these cars. I'm often amused or perhaps flattered to see who goes out of their way to park next to me. It is frequently any Subaru...not surprised. So far, the list includes a Z06 or two, various Porsches, Mercades, etc. Most of these cars wear wheels and tires damned near the price of my entire car. Yeah...the lime light is bright!
