Saw the same frs 4 times tonight, it's white, and I think it has an exhaust, whomever you are, you turned left at the light headed towards krogers.

Ran into a frs this morning, I was enjoying the morning ride, gave you a thumbs up, you sent one back lol.

Also saw a dark gray brz (I can't think of the exact color name), I forgot what street I was on, and we were going in opposite directions

What city where you in when you saw the white frs?

I commute an hour to work and I just don't want to drive any other car right now, so I'm waiting for some vacation time (coming up soon) before I take my car in to get it fixed.
most windshield places can come to your business and get it replaced in an hour or 2 at most. I've got a guy who just replaced mine. He's awesome and fairly inexpensive. And he uses Pilkington glass, which no one could match his price for that glass.

Pilkington is what's used in every other Subaru other than the BRZ because Toyota is cheap.

Thanks I'll look into that when I take my car in. It may be easier to just get everything done at the same place though.. can't afford to have my car in the shop for too long.

To be fair, I noticed his car about 7 weeks ago, and he's almost always in early and stays late. So he must work pretty long hours.

That's me. And you are correct, i work 70+ hours a week this time of year, so I have not had a chance to fix the dent (courtesy of someone who hit my parked car and did not leave a note). Plan to pop it out in a couple weeks once I have time and the proper equipment.

As far as being an enthusiast, I flew up to Baltimore to buy my BRZ because my preorder was taking too long in Atlanta, so I'm that crazy guy. Have had it for over a year now.

I do love your blue BRZ btw. That was the other color I was considering. Cheers!

The Marietta kennasaw area. When said frs made the left, if it didn't go in krogers, it ran into canton road, with a bank on the left lol.

Thanks, man.

I was just pulling your chain, and thought maybe I'd get your attention on here. I did notice the clear side markers, so I figured you had some interest in your car beyond it just being a daily driver.

Goes in spurts for me but I see a fair number of them. I'm in the East Roswell area right by Holcomb Bridge. I will say I see more 86s around here than I ever saw WRXs. I'm usually in my Jeep though when I see them. My daily commute isn't very long and I don't drive the BRZ much normally, I just hit 9K miles after owning the car for almost 2 years.
