Welcome man! Big change you made, but how will you ever know if you enjoy something if you don't try it, right?

I'm sure you'll love it, and you'll love the community. Most of us are extremely helpful around here, if you have any questions about anything, don't be afraid to ask!

Nice pick with the ultramarine! I had thought they discontinued that color for 2014, glad they kept it.

Its pretty much what I tell people,...just drive it. I had a much faster car , both in the corners and tons more faster in a straight line. Until you drive it and drive it hard you just wont get it. And as soon as you buy one,..... all you want to do is make it do all the above better.

Whats the big plastic wheel'd "annihilated porta potty" looking bucket thing behind the car? Never saw a bucket like that, or look that disturbing! lol I'm guessing it is like a wheel barrow?

Congrats on the car bro!

Oh,....Rossman ...... I'm ah feared you missed it ....


“We drove it...... I had never heard of an frs before thattest drive.”

“2 hours later I had committed what I thought was adulteryor abandonment when I drove that car off the lot,”
So, the "what you must hear" part is directed to non-FR-S/BRZ owners ....... don't be taking test drives .... unless you want a new, fun car in your driveway....

Congrats on the new drive. I gave up a Lexus for mine and I don't regret it a bit.

When reading the post I thought it said "My wife's jeep commander died recently of a crack head" which would not have surprised me where I came from... Glad to be on the opposite side of the states from Florida.
