Just to let you guys know, I was able to change my work shift tomorrow.

I'm now finishing at 4pm tomorrow. So I should be there about 5 or 10 minutes after 4 tomorrow.

I'll send you guys a PM just incase you don't see this post.

I bet its another one of those cars we saw at the port. I doubt they are the same car because of the time obviously.

I'd bet money its one we saw in the photo a week ago.

Sounds like me and the car show was there for about 8 hrs with dirty thoughts of BRZ/FRS

At the car show I harassed both Subaru and Scion for hours until Subaru broke down and let me have a quick peek. Actually sat in it twice 1st time I got in a huge line formed right away and the guy asked me to get out and come back when its less busy 2nd time they gave me a Subaru jacket to wear and told me to tell people I work for Subaru thats why I'm in the car.

I got a video of it up in the carshow thread

I'm pretty set on the BRZ. I've had enough RWD cars to know that for me the extra stability it seems to have according to reviews will be beneficial. I'm looking for overall predictable response rather than hanging the tail out.

I have nothing to complain about it (except for some interior personal nit picks) since I saw it in person, and since they priced it fairly.

I don't doubt the overall drive will be amazing but...

I'm just on the fence on if i want to give up my wrx for this car.

I'm worried about the power output..I've been spoiled. My last 4 cars have all had 300-350hp and i've gotten used to VERY fast cars...i would like to feel how much slower this car actually is. I may have to set aside money for a heavy tune later down the road, or i wait for the sti version of this and at the same time, find out what the next wrx will be
