The beer was a gift from the dealer.

I've dealt with many dealers over the years and this dealership is great.
I can't wait to head down to Tampa to pickup my BRZ from them on 6/13

Mostly DD and autocross. I have a race car which gets most of the track duty (for obvious reasons). The BRZ (like the ITR) will see HPDE time as well of course.

Excellent!! Too bad the front bumper was drilled on the R.

Love how they're just about the same size. I'm going from an Integra myself to the BRZ.

Not drilled, just doesn't have the caps installed They had holes by default but little plastic caps over the holes. Much better than the Subaru "drill holes" solution. ITR is about .5" lower than stock and I think the BRZ is still lower overall.. looks it anyways.

Buddy just pulled up with his 97 ITR so time to go move cars from work to home
