MID A Check In-New People Intro here please-Lounge Thread

[OMNOM]

Hey everyone! I've lurked here awhile (I think I made a screen name when this forum was created, but I forgot the info) but just recently started posting. I live in Fairfax and just put in my order on Saturday for a Black BRZ Limited. I was uncertain if I wanted this car because of the power numbers when compared to some comparable models (s2k, GC, Z), but after driving it I was impressed enough to place my order. It's going to strain the wallet more than my current WRX, and the back seats are useless, but I figured I can get away with that while I'm young.

Anyway, I hope to get out for a couple local meets both for BRZ/FR-S drivers and all cars meets too. I'm pretty excited for the potential aftermarket support for a car like this, too.

Another new member with a bugeye WRX (original owner) from DC-area. Looking at the BRZ as a strong possibility as a second car to keep the miles off the bugeye.

Looking forward to seeing the aftermarket potential of these cars, even though I'd probably just do wheels and lip kit for now – looking at Galaxy or Rally blue + matte black CE28N – but then again I tend to change my mind a lot in 10 years of owning the same car

I might change my mind though when I see them in person in a couple of weeks at the First drive event.

Great to be here.

Hey everybody I'm Matt. Lurked here for a while getting info on the cars. Decided I was going to buy an FR-S after attending the First Drive event in Baltimore. I live around Tysons Corner so pretty easy to jump around the D.C. area quickly for meet ups if we have those.

Also, don't know if anyone else has gotten an ETA on their delivery, I ordered my FR-S from Koons in Tysons and they just called me today saying my car should arrive week of June 4th. I'm #4 on their list so that's the first round of cars. Incoming Hot Lava MT omnomnom.

Another DC/NoVA new member checking in here. Just placed my deposit for a Firestorm AT FR-S with Lustine Scion in Woodbridge yesterday. I doubt it'll be with the first lot but hopefully I'll have it by the end of the summer.

I'll be trading in my beloved (but not quite that beloved) 2010 Scion tC.

Welcome and congrats on the order.

[MVJ1975]

Thanks!

Lustine just called and offered me Raven or Ultramarine. I said no deal - Firestorm or nothing, and I'm willing to wait.

It rankles me continually that my tC isn't red, and red wasn't even an option on the tC... I'd not forgive myself for compromising on the FR-S!

Haha my dealer called (FItz) and said that a lot of the FR-S's in NY are being held at the port until May 29th.
