Welcome.
I'm also in NoCal and picked up mine from Albany this month.

So far I installed a rear view camera, homelink mirror, clear bra and got a tint.

Welcome, let me know what you end up doing to the your car to get some ideas. I would check with Mike over at GST Motorsports for some mods.

Hello Everyone!!! Just got my Series.Blue a couple weeks ago and am loving it!!! Nothing done yet, but soon. I'm in Denver and always up for a cruise or meet so hit me up!


Also have a CBR and definitely not opposed to cruises up the canyons on that too.

Our awesome sales guy is still arguing with the other dealer about how the kit belongs to our car (our guy traded one of their subies to get us our .blue), so we don't have the aero kit quite yet, but for the time being, here's our 2,774lb, 166.7" bundle of joy.
(just iPhone shots this eve as it was getting dark, not to mention we'll just have to reshoot everything when we have the rest of it shortly…)

Hi everybody! Lurked on forum for awhile gathering more info on the BRZ. Joined shortly after test driving the 6MT and 6AT back to back and deciding this would be my next car. Pre-ordered a 2015 Limited 6AT in DGM, which I should get in late October.

Previously owned a 2002 WRX, i bought new in 01, that i traded in for a 2013 FJ Cruiser Trail Teams SE, about a year and a half later i missed having a fun car to toss around. Traded in the FJ Cruiser which had ridiculously high resale value and it covered the cost of my new MT BRZ Limited with leftover for downpayment. Looking forward to working on this beauty now.

Just out of curiosity, why did you decide to go with the 6AT, even after trying the 6MT?

And I study in Orlando now where I have a 2012 Rubicon 2 door with the pentastar with 33's and an intake/exhaust..



I wish to get a BRZ automatic which I will be taking home with me after I finish college and build it here, My aim is around 300 something hp.





















Sorry for photo whoring.. I also use a 2005.5 W220 S500 L 4-Matic with a designated driver (non amg, with 16s for comfort) in black with limo tint and police strobes (Have an ex special service undercover officer with me at all times due to my fathers work in Turkey, Can't say exactly..)



Heres some pics of the Jeep(have none of benz) while sending my friend to the Turkish Army (its mandatory to serve)









Glad to be here, and looking for advice for mods to my future BRZ!

Hi Senna,

Have to managed to carry out your brz project?

I have an auto gt86 TRD with the innovate supercharger , custom catback exhaust with the Trd muffler, rated at 307 bhp. We got 290 wbhp on dyno and the thing flies on the motorway. I am told that we could achieve more by changing muffler and adding fuel pumps but it would be an overkill.

Next on the list is putting in oil and engine transmission coolers for track driving and for safety.

Can not wait to take it for a spin at Istanbul Park soon.

Hi, everyone:

Bought the 2015 BRZ Aozora and having a real blast driving it all over Ottawa. At least until the snow starts and I'll be parking it for the winter.

With three kids, the BRZ is totally impractical...but practical is what the minivan is for.

Hi Everyone!

Picked up the 2015 BRZ about a month ago! So far i have invidia catless front pipe/over pipe and Greddy Evo 3 installed. Still learning and getting used to the car as this is my first RWD. Coming from a 2011 STi, I am missing the power but overall I think the BRZ is a better car for DD.

Hi All,


Just put down a deposit on my SSM Premium 6spd. Looking forward to having a lightweight car again. Not to say an '05 LGT is heavy. Just wanted a sportier ride. This should be an awesome weekend toy! Will post some pics once it's in the garage.
