Congratulations! Hot Lava looks really good. I'm going Whiteout myself, but this was my next choice.

That's what AE86 was all about, total driver control (and total untrained driver lack of control) and that's the spirit and soul this FRS carries in the blood, somewhere deep in the secret settings.
no Committee, no Nannies, ALL PASSION.

This applies to both 6MT and 6AT on both BRZ and FRS.

Haha, nice to hear that! Congrats for Moto and HotLavaMan!

I'm pretty sure it has a tilt and telescoping steering wheel. Double check dude.

I checked again. It *does* have telescoping.. when I first checked yesterday I guess I didn't pull hard enough. It only has about two inches of travel but that's better than none.

I just tried it. I rolled down the window with "accessory on" then turned key all the way off and took it out... it let me roll the window back up with the car off.

I think it's got retained accessory power for 30 seconds after shutoff.
