Welcome. I dig the red, very sharp.

When do the mods start?
I already debadged it does that count?
Not sure I think that the main focus will be brakes and suspension until the powertrain warranty is up. I like how I can use all the throttle through the corners and want to keep it super balanced. I have two motorcycles for straight line speed, its all about handling and braking. :-)

First rwd car - Traded in my WRX after just 1 month

Got a nail in the tire on my 2014 Subaru WRX Limited so took it down to the dealer the other day. While they were looking at it I test drove the BRZ. I signed on the BRZ before the shop was done fixing the tire. What a fantastic balanced car. I am madly in love with this car and can't wait to pick up a second one once the used ones start coming out that I can have as a track dedicated car.

My quick automotive history:

1992 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX - First car 180hp AWD LSD for days
2005 Mini Cooper S - Second car still own it - 175 ish hp slightly tuned
2014 Subaru WRX Limited - 265hp awd Owned it for one month just long enough to get a court date - Sold it bc the body roll sucked donkey phallus
2015 Subaru BRZ Premium - Still breaking in the engine - the best driving experience ever

Hi Everyone!

My name is Jeremy and I'm from Lincoln, NE. I just picked up my new to me '15 BRZ Limited on Saturday and haven't stopped smiling since. Had 3,800 on the clock when I picked it up and just ticked over 4,000 today.

hey everyone! i just got my 86 vin yesterday

should be a new and exciting adventure for me. this will be my first RWD car... hahaha but i already have a plans of course ^_^

unfortunately, i'm going to have to let go of my wrx that i've had since its day one. i'll be keeping my sti and my excursion of course.. but still it's always hard to say good bye. i'll have A LOT of reading to do on here and i really hope that there are some well written FAQs and that the atmosphere is a little less than baptism by first because i'm a noob that likes to ask questions because maybe it just didn't make sense when i searched. D:

anywho, can't wait to get the new car.. should be fun. i am still terrified that i am making a huge mistake... but the community has been extremely supportive of this platform. needless to say, i'm scared.
