South Bay Members?

Hey guys I'm new to the forums. I've been looking forward to the BRZ/FRS for a bit. Just looking to see who the enthusiasts in my area are.

Where's everyone getting their cars from? I have my name on the list down at Carson scion. But a couple of other places have me on their list too. None would let em put down a deposit, did any of you find a deal that actually takes a deposit and doesn't just take your name down?

Whats does everyone currently drive? I'm still in my 2002 Nissan Sentra SER SPEC V.

That's it just wanted to get to know my neighbors.

It's a bit sad, but some dealers (at least 3 weeks ago) still thought the car is a concept only LOL.

That's why I went with Longo. Longo was on top of it. Longo had the FRS on their website even in Dec. In Dec, no other dealership had a clue of the FRS, except Longo and I called or visited many dealers in LA/OC area.
Thanks Jeff & Dave

Yeah I got my name down on the list at Carson too. I used to drive an 03 RSX Type S, but sold it before I deployed to Afghan. I got an 08 FJ Cruiser now that's pretty modded out but I miss having a sport car.

Just talked with Nathan, quick to respond, had all the information I needed, and steps on what I needed to do to grab my launch FRS.

Give him a call if you are still looking.

Thanks again!
