I live in Florence, work in Erlanger (at Toyota). I have the first white or grey FR-S that comes to Dry Ridge Toyota on order.

I'm a big time car enthusiast. I've mostly had BMWs: '98 Z3 2.8, '95 325is, '06 Z4 3.0si Coupe, '87 SpecE30 race car. But I've also branched out a bit: '04 RX-8, '88 Fiero GT (childhood dream come true). I was saving for an E90 M3 (current V8 4-dr model), but ran across the Fiero last year and couldn't pass on it (16,000 original miles!). So I had to drop my price point by about $10k for a car this year. I also have a Fiat 500 Abarth on order, but I will drop that order for the FR-S.

I road race competitively (http://AnthonyMagagnoliRacing.com) and have a side business that do private driver coaching, vehicle setup, and race support through (www.DriveFasterNow.com). Through that, I have also become the Test Driver and Vehicle Performance Advisor for Falcon Motorsports and their F7 supercar that was just unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show (www.FalconF7.com). While that car weighs only 100 lbs more than an FR-S, but with over 3x the power, I don't think horsepower is a requisite for fun. I loved my RX-8 in a way that I expect the FR-S to fulfill.

See you guys around.

Do you or anyone you know want a race-prepped Mini Cooper S?

Here's my ad.

I actually have two Mini's for sale at the moment....both nicely modded.

Black 04' with 9600 miles

2002 S with 76k miles

Chris, Please let us know when that car is available for test drive. I would drive up to try it out. That is, if you don't mind, since i have an FR-S on order.

You might consider also advertising the car on bmwccaclubracing.com, in roundel, on NASA's site, SCCA, and racingjunk.com.
Who did the cage?
It's too bad it's not a B-Spec Cooper. That series has the potential to take off and I have an eye on that class for next year.
Good luck!

Thanks...

I had it on racing junk a few weeks and haven't tried any other sites or publications.

I have an interested party but he hasn't fully committed.

Awesome!

Congrats and I hope it's everything you expected!

Here's an update.

I have a prem. 6 speed in Silver avail. next week for Immediate delivery.

We'd just like to have it around a couple of days on the showroom floor so a few people can see it.

Chris,

I'm waiting on my own order to come in, but I'm wondering if you can share any news or input on when your silver one will come in. That will help me estimate my own ETA.

You said that you'll have one next week.. so you're thinking the 29th.. which is probably your official ETA from your inventory report?


We've heard that the first round of BRZ's for the midwest are in Chicago.. have been unloaded from the train, and are waiting for distribution. Some in Chicago have already been delivered. So a few of us from IN, MI, OH, WI have been trying to track down the cars and figure out when we're going to see them.

Do you have any intel you could share?

Do they often sit for a full week or longer waiting to collate with other models before loading on a truck and shipping out to the dealership?
Some people have been told that it's usually only a day or two.. which would indicate that our cars might be to the dealerships early this week already.

Anything you can share?

Hi Bob,
I just found this thread for the first time, thanks for posting it. I live and work in Cincinnati and have a Premium, MT, WR Blue BRZ ordered. I just got off the phone with my dealer. They supplied me with a VON, but could not provide any other info such as ETA or VIN.

The car I have on the way should've been here by today....the delivery date has been pushed back a couple of times.
Other than what I can see there is all I know....and the system is only as good as the person updating it, which a lot of times isn't updated as often as it should be.

I'll let you guys know as soon as it gets here, barring the admins don't change my log-in info. (my screen name may change to emmerson_biggins)

Congrats! Not sure I'll get the chance before I get mine next week. What are your initial impressions?

Chris, are the BRZ's not being held to a release date? Scion won't let me have my car until June 1st.

I really like it so far. It's my first stick, and still breaking in the engine, so I can't really give much better feedback than that just yet.

The silver car is cleaned up and looks great!

It's available to the first person of interest.

At this time it still has only delivery miles on it....in other words, nobody has test driven it and we're reluctant to do so.

I also have a car that will be here soon that can be sold upon arrival.

It's a Silver Ltd. Auto
