It has to be a four door car. I just registered for their site and it blatantly says,
To partner with Uber, your vehicle must:

Be 2005 or newer
Have 4 or more doors
Not be salvaged

And then there is a check box that says "My vehicle meets these requirements". Below that; however, it provides you with this "Thank you for applying, but you must have a car to drive with Uber at this time. We will keep your information on file and get in touch if we are able to offer other options in the future."

And I just got an e-mail let me see what this thing says... and nothing worth it. I can make a phone call later this week and see if two door cars are approved on a case/case basis.

Shoot, side questions:
can someone provide a list of the weekend meets that take place in Houston?

You should join the Houston 86 Club on fb. It is 1,000x more active than this thread.

Well, we will see. I just put the request in to join... oddly enough I know someone in so that is shocking. Funny thing - he is in California.

Going way back to the Uber reference on the last page. I finally got around to asking and this is the response I received:

Hi [Removed my Name] —

Thanks for writing in. Happy to help!

As if know we are not approving 2 door sport's car at the moment.

Uber highly values the feedback of its partners and we take what you're saying very seriously. As a growing company, we are constantly seeking ways to better enhance the Uber experience from both drivers' and riders' perspectives.

We appreciate your thoughtfulness and taking the time to write to us. We will evaluate your feedback internally.

Best,

Kalyan

Ignore the spelling errors in response. Makes me wonder how many e-mails they get a day.

Hi, new member here in Houston, TX. Anyone else around the Galleria area and want to go cruise? Just got a 2013 FR-S and am starting to modify it slightly.

No clue yet. Just wanted to meet up with other FT86 owners and see how many of us are in Houston. I'm open to suggestions.

I think there's a car show at 249 and Louetta this Sunday at Vantage Park. We could meet up there.

Sounds like I need to get on facebook (which I hate lol). Would love to join the 86 club.

Also, is there anyone in Houston who can either install (or help me install) my new catback system on my FRS? I live in an apartment and am lacking tools. Looks pretty simple to install but I need a garage/tools to do it in. I don't think my apartment would be happy doing maintenance in the parking garage
