See over 200 Civics though, they even have crews. And, I'm here driving my FR-S like a grandma.
I think the "red lava" is probably the rarest of the rare!

Definitely not common here, town of 30,000 Midwest illinois. Mostly trucks and v6 mustangs/Camaros. I know of only one other that actually lives in the area and it's the lava orange. Looks real nice.

I've seen about 5 or 6 in the last two weeks since I've had mine and I cruised with two of them, both modded.

I was in traffic the other day with two FRS so I'm assuming now that it's warming up here in Denver they're starting to come out of hibernation.

I don't think I've seen more than 10 in my life on the road, besides mine. There is 1 I see infrequently around the Maine/New Hampshire border. Its white with some minor mods.

They are uncommon around me. I see maybe 1-2 a month, usually the same one though.

I don't see a whole lot maybe two or three driving around the Sarasota/Venice area. Then you have my FR-S and my neighbors DGM BRZ. I've only had my car for 5 days and I get so many looks and a what is that comment. I made my appointment to get my windows tinted and they asked is that a scion TC? Not quite.

Ill see zero for days on end and then in one day ill run across 2-3 in my 20 minute commute to work or home.

Had a black fr-s flash his/her emergency lights at me a couple of weeks ago, i thought about flashing my beams back but i didnt want to blind anyone, and then a few minutes later there was a white or silver brz along the same stretch of highway.

In Houston it really depends on what area of town you're in. For instance, I live and work downtown and almost never see any 86s. There's a white FRS that's in my parking garage every day, but I don't think he/she is on the forums, but that's usually the only 86 I see in a day. Most people stick to the 3-series formula. =\

I also am in SoCal, and I see them often, everyday. I try to show 86 love, and say hello, but so far I've had literally one person wave back.
