Thanks! Will keep that in mind when I visit one of my local dealers.

My local dealer (Bristol tn) had 2 monograms when I was there last. You can find them if you want to. It might require a short trip to bring it home.


Edit: checked on this - they sold the manual whiteout and only have an auto whiteout monogram left.

Ahhh... a fellow masshole!!

What color you looking for? I too like the nose of the frs and the features of the brz lmt... Yes, you can swap the nose, but it's not going to be cheap. You'll have to find someone w/ the same color and swap, or buy one new, get it painted to match, and sell your old nose to recoup some $$$.

If you want a firestone red manual FR-S, here's a monogram in MA:

Thanks, I was looking for the manual whiteout, its sad that its already sold...
But its okay tho, I plan on buying the car this summer, so I guess even I can find one now it will be gone by summer.

Here's one in NY:

One of the guys on the cape took a greyhound bus ride up to manchester NH to pick up his brz. If you do something similar, not only will you have the car you want, you'll also have a story about how you got it Or you could ask your local dealer to have it shipped back to them.

That's the one me and him were talking about. haha

Either he or I will have a story to tell when one of us grabs it. I'll definitely have a story to tell since I'll be going cross-country and through Canada to get it back home. First scheduled service will be done before I even reach home. haha

I'm actually considering getting a second one later on that's Hot Lava. So maybe next time?

PS: We have a Hot Lava in our showroom right now, but it's automatic, so I dunno... I'm a manual kind of driver.

Haha. Like I said, it's not like I can lay claim to it. It's first come, first serve.

White MT for track. Lava AT for show. Problem solved!
