I'd be down. The FRS is up for the winter so I'd have the Tacoma but I'm game. PM me though because I only stop in the forums once in a while unless I get a notification about a PM

Yeah, my BRZ is up on stands for the winter too, so I'm just bombing around in my wagon.

I'll let both of you know via PM!

+1, would love to meet more of the owners in the area. I'm in Ann Arbor, along with quite a few other engineers who work with me and also own FRS's.

I'd be up for some food with a bunch of engineers. If the roads are clear I might even bring my BRZ.
Otherwise, once it warms up we could coordinate on some Cars&Coffee and electric karts.

Huh, okay, then it was not you that I saw. I've seen a black FRS or BRZ with exhaust and black valentini taillights driving through DT Ann Arbor, thought that was you. I actually work at the Toyota Tech Center in Saline, so we have probably 20+ FR-S's at work that belong to various engineers. Here's to hoping for a clear day so we can actually have a meet!

I would definitely attend as long as it fit into my schedule!

About to head out and clear the sidewalks at my mom's place. Hakkapeliittas and 80 lbs of cat litter in the trunk, but yeah, it's a challenge at times. The car's lightness is its fault right now :-\

Yeah my legacy was sliding around a lot and I didn't even try to take the fr-s out in all of this.
