Hello everyone, my name is Steven and I'm from China. I've been living in Austin, TX from 1998-2009 and came back to China to take over family business.
Picked up my pearl white BRZ back in June and I still think buying that BRZ is the most exciting thing I've done in 2013 so far.
Looking forward to discussing anything about BRZ with you guys. You guys are awesome!
Attached pics are taken the day I picked it up and it's much different now. Will upload more pics later on. :p

SWP! Color was the hardest part of the entire process.

Hi everyone, it's nice to see a forum for BRZ and FRS enthusiasts.

I'm a big rotard and all I've owned in the past were rotary powered cars. I'm coming from owning mostly FC's and RX-8's and I'm well known over on rx8club.com

I totally fell in love with the BRZ after test driving one. It feels great and it handles just like my 8. I'm planning buying a BRZ by the end of this year and I'm torn apart with either a Satin White Pearl or a Galaxy Blue Silica.

This forum's got a wealth of knowledge for a car that just barely hit the market about a year ago and I'm looking forward to owning and learning more about this car.

Hello. GBS BRZ here in rockland county ny. I'm 36 yrs old and this is my first new car. Main reason I bought it is because sitting in it reminded me of my first car as a teenager, 1982 celica gt hatchback. So far I'm loving it, minus the quirky head unit that shuts on and off on its own. I don't know if I'm doing it right, but below should be a pic of when I picked up from dealer on May 29th

Hi, my name is Bill. I bought my DGM BRZ Premium in May, 2103 and have been lurking here ever since. This forum now feels like home. I'm 57, lost my wife 8 months ago and, aside from family, the BRZ has been the biggest joy of my life. It just feels fantastic to hop into it and drive until the sun sets.

Always looking to improve it. Put in the aftermarket center armrest, put on a Milltek resonated catback (God, what a difference!), had the entire exterior opti-coated, clear side markers, LED lights everywhere. Next big thing is to upgrade this horrible stereo - going with the OEM Audio 400 Plus.

Really nice to be here!

Hello. Zoti from TX. Picked up my Sterling Silver Limited 6MT from Clint in Colorado this past weekend. It replaced my E36 M3. Love it so far.

Hello,

Name is Josh, I'm a current STI owner and am in the beginning stages of selling my STI for a BRZ.

Built the block on my STI and made it fast, but a big ticket made me re evaluate what I want from a car and straight line power just isn't cutting it. I want a drivers car, something i can push to its limits. My immediate first thought was a BRZ, and the more lurking I do on here and research on the cars the more I want one.

Hopefully my car sells by the end of the month and I can step into a BRZ. Any people with experience switching from an STI to a BRZ?
