Went to NY to put some miles on the car and get a Shawarma/falafel/chicken and rice, good fun. Car now has 820 miles (Got it June 1st). Break in time almost over!

Some pics of my car and the falafel from NY

Hello guys/gals. My name is Bryan, just checking in. I'm actually holding out for the BRZ STI. But I get tempted everytime I see a BRZ Limited on the road. It's just so berry sex on wheels. Just hope the BRZ STI isn't over 35K when it comes out.

In Virginia Beach now, but most likely moving to Maryland at the end of this year.

What's the nicest place to live within ~30 minutes to Fort Meade? I'm thinking Columbia...?

kanundrum, I wouldn't mind if you could spare a few words on the ride performance of your car. I consider NCR to NYC a good medium range trip, with lots of different road surfaces to evaluate the ride quality of a vehicle. What did you like? What didn't you like? Any quirks worth noting? Super interested over here :-).

Falafel rocks, btw! My grandma's recipe is the bomb.... Oh wait... Shit, I just used 'falafel' and 'bomb' in the same sentence. I gotta go, they're coming for me, man!!!

Lets see

The car for a road trip is not bad, the seats are comfy but the headrest kills me as I can't really relax. The suspension on the highway in my opinion is just fine and comfy for a sports car and even in NYC handled the terrain like a champ. Honestly NYC and DC have about the same roads now a days so I didn't really notice any diff haha. The way the car zips thru traffic though almost reminds me of a mini/fiat because the car is small and has pep so it loves cutting in and out of traffic. So not many quirks just the head rests and the seats that aren't the best for road trips but hey Im not really complaining should probably just stop eating falafel and go to the gym more

Oh and welcome my good friend lives in woodbridge Love the wegmans!

Hey guys, just figured I'd check in from the Columbia-ish, MD area. I picked up my GBS Limited on Friday from Russel Subaru, and I've been driving about having a blast ever since! Haven't seen any other BRZ/FR-S around, but I'm keeping an eye out.

Thanks. I've noticed a fair amount of attention so far, which is a new experience for me. I'm sure it will die down, but I got more comments yesterday alone than I've had on any of my other vehicles combined. The only bad thing is that I'm now hyper-sensitive about speeding. No more slipping under the radar so to speak. Not in a small blue sports car.
