I love how small the motor is!


IMG_0155 by MirHussain, on Flickr

Badge was sexy!


IMG_0157 by MirHussain, on Flickr

I LOVE THE FRONT END. I used to hate, but now I can't fault it. EXCEPT, the plastic retainer feels a little cheap. Perhaps it needs removal...


IMG_0158 by MirHussain, on Flickr

Wheels are a little busy, but I like em!


IMG_0159 by MirHussain, on Flickr

Out of Focus Subaru Stamp.


IMG_0160 by MirHussain, on Flickr

There was one of those old Beetle-looking Subarus in the back...


IMG_0161 by MirHussain, on Flickr

My brother is 5'11", and he is bending over a little. Shows you how low the roof is! BUT, it is still more dignified to get in than the Supra, despite being only 1" higher.


IMG_0162 by MirHussain, on Flickr

The sill felt plasticky, and didn't look too good either...


IMG_0163 by MirHussain, on Flickr

My long-legged 6'1" friend sits really far back, and when he sat in it comfortably, there was basically no rear leg room. I would go ahead and say that people up to 6'5" could fit in the Drivers seat!


IMG_0166 by MirHussain, on Flickr

I like how the rear seats look. They will make good storage areas lol.


IMG_0167 by MirHussain, on Flickr

Door Card. Also, I love how the window comes up and down on these frameless doors. Frameless doors are wonderful!


IMG_0168 by MirHussain, on Flickr

The Mirrors are stubby little things, but look nice!


IMG_0170 by MirHussain, on Flickr

That's where the glass is from...


IMG_0172 by MirHussain, on Flickr

A look at the wing, which I like very much!


IMG_0173 by MirHussain, on Flickr

Helmet Clearance...


IMG_0174 by MirHussain, on Flickr

Love the Tails...


IMG_0175 by MirHussain, on Flickr

Michelin Primacy 215/45/17, as we all know...


IMG_0176 by MirHussain, on Flickr


IMG_0177 by MirHussain, on Flickr


IMG_0178 by MirHussain, on Flickr

Now, you know the intake sound pipe? I followed it, and it enters the cabin below the battery, above the downpipe...


IMG_0179 by MirHussain, on Flickr


IMG_0180 by MirHussain, on Flickr


IMG_0181 by MirHussain, on Flickr

Controls...


IMG_0183 by MirHussain, on Flickr

Dash was nice! The Speedo is surprisingly small!


IMG_0184 by MirHussain, on Flickr

OK, the transmission. Obviously I didn't drive it, but OH MAN. It was so wonderfully notch and precise. The throw is deliciously short. OH GOD, I nearly had to change my pants after I started shifting it around... Clutch was very light, but again, I never drove it...


IMG_0185 by MirHussain, on Flickr

I love the HVAC...


IMG_0186 by MirHussain, on Flickr

I like the whole center console! The cupholder comes out and can be moved the front of it's cubby or the back, there are little notches that it sits in!


IMG_0187 by MirHussain, on Flickr

A little bit of cow on the door...


IMG_0188 by MirHussain, on Flickr

This is basically what looking out the rearview is like...


IMG_0189 by MirHussain, on Flickr

This iPhone 4, in a thin case, fit with plenty of space in that little area. The shifter doesn't even get close to the phone in 3rd or 5th, so there is space for a USB cable and everything! If you use a Galaxy SII though, you might have trouble...


IMG_0192 by MirHussain, on Flickr

I shoulda turned the lights on...


IMG_0193 by MirHussain, on Flickr

And lastly, to greatly disappoint you... The orange peel was appalling... I hope it was because it is a prototype car... The color is amazing, but man the peel is apparent...

It looked even better in person...

Oh man, today was so awesome... So much anticipation for this...


Now just a few months more and the journey will be complete... Or perhaps it will just start?

I will say though, I think the center console is cluttered with the switches, push start, and auto HVAC. Otherwise....NOMNOM

WRB...so beautiful

And I'm telling you, that intake pipe is going to the HVAC vent system. Follow that same tract in an Impreza and you end up right near the HVAC drip tube.

Indeed, you're probably right...

WRB looks very RSP-esque in last pic from your iPhone. So glad that's the color I went with. Glad you liked it!

Heads-up, the BRZ in Plano is now gone. Some rep left with it early, so don't head there if you haven't already.

Beautiful car, by the way.

Really? Short stay there then. Hopefully KevinDuMa got to see it before it left. Is it staying in the Dallas area or going to a different state?
