I always tell people I feel like I mated my Integra to a G37s and they had a baby: BRZ. That sound accurate Dave?

Love it Dave!!! Congrats again! How many miles do you currently have on her? Also, if you mentioned this, I apologize, but what tint is that on the windows? It looks great!

 The car feels more like a mix of the Miata and S2000 but does have extra (although limited) practicality. I'm not sure there's any previous cars that I'd really be able to draw a family tree from for this car.. most likely would be some of the great JDM cars of the 90s but even then it's quite different from those. By the numbers it seems like a RWD ITR, but in terms of practicality, rawness and the focused nature of the ITR it doesn't compare. On the flip side compared to a G35/G37 it's much more raw and focused, but still with less practicality. Compared to the S2000, it feels similar but is more practical.

Tint is 3M Color Stable 35% on the front side windows (and the little triangle windows next to the mirrors) and 20% on the qtr windows and rear window. Cost of tinting was $240 plus tax. Went with a color stable tint so it would be warrantied against the color changing to purple like cheaper dyed tints will do and to get a non-metallic tint so the keyless, etc wouldn't be impacted (in theory, who knows if that's just marketing bs or not).

 I really hope your DC2 continues to photo-bomb future shoots.I've always wanted one, but didn't want to get one unless I could have it as a second car so as not to rack up miles. Easily my all-time favorite car. Great photos!
