NY spotted thread

[Gost]

anyone taking the BQE heading southbound (towards staten island), be careful around Brooklyn bridge, Tillary street exit (DUMBO), theres a land mine of huge ass potholes. i hit one just tonight and it fucking popped my front bumper out of place. Couldn't even dodge it, it literally took up the entire lane.

Theres even a reddit post on it.

Black/grey FRS honked at me while I was turning at the intersection of route 82 and 55 today. Maybe the same one who works up the road?

Saw a black BRZ Saturday both before work and after work. Once on Western Ave and once at Crossgates Mall. Flashed you and waved both times but you didn't respond. Too busy texting or looking at your cock. I'm not sure which.

There's fucking potholes on every major highway. and not even little potholes. these things are like 4 inches deep. I hit one on the BX river and caught a flat. how'd your tire/wheels make out from that hit? how's the bumper damage?

Ill admit, got the XXRS installed yday and went on brooklyn bridge. For a second I thought i probably ruined the wheels already! I was also on prokit but with the 235/40/18 tires my car didnt actually lower as much as it should of(only got em to eliminate wheel gap......which they did)

Thank God we have good roads on Eastern Suffolk lol

Not even sure if this makes sense but, because of the car's stock height, i think the pothole was so deep that the bottom of the wheel didn't even touch the bottom of the pothole, and the bumper took the entire impact. Only the passenger side I felt sunk in so I was able to get out of the hole with the power coming from the rear.

I inspected the wheel and tire for damage, but didn't really notice anything other than white scuff marks on the tire.

The bumper however looks like its slightly out of place and not flush to the rest of the body. Going to have the dealership just remove the bumper and put it back on. Just hope nothing thats supposed to hold it in place broke.
When it happened it scared the crap out of me. It was dark first off and the impact was so hard and loud. (This happened right at the Cadman Plaza exit in Brooklyn right when it just gets dark when you pass under the Brooklyn bridge)

How big was the pothole? how fast were you going?

The WRB BRZ could be me. I live in New City, NY. Work in Pfizer Pearl River on Middletown Rd and workout at 24 hour fitness in nanuet. So I can usually be seen on Rt 304, All over New City and Pearl River. It is nice meeting you guys. I have 2 more guys at work in pearl river who drive brzs as well (Dark Greys.)

There has been times when I have exchanged honks or blinkers on 304. Usually a white FRS/BRZ and definitely see a silver one if I am going early for work.

like 10mph. i couldn't even see the pothole because its right where the brooklyn bridge covers everything up making it pitch dark at night.

spotted black twin on Atlantic Avenue and South Oxford around 7:30PM today blasting Tupac - Hit Em Up. anyone on here?

I love how all the "spotted" threads sound like the "Missed Connections" section on Craigslist
