Well, OP, you bought the wrong car. Over here in Subaru land, we proud and loyal owners are graciously presented (okay, so you fill out an online form and they mail them to you) with these exclusive Subaru 'badges of ownership'. FREE OF CHARGE from Subaru in gratitude for our brand loyalty:
https://www.badgeofownership.com/

I value these precious tokens so much that I cannot bear to expose them to the elements on the trunk of my BRZ; so they're kept safe as keepsakes and heirlooms for my son.
(I'm sure if I look hard enough, I'll find mine in the kitchen drawer next to the bag of disintegrated rubber bands.)

Secret code for service managers to determine the type of person they're dealing with.

mechanic/gear badge - probably knows what he's talking about so don't try to snow him too bad. but, we can blame him for wrenching on his own car and causing the issue.

rally/racing badge - warranty claim denied as he probably took his car to the track

yoga/art badge - tell them their muffler bearings are shot and need replacement.

...and so on...

Edit/update: 2-15-16 10pm PST. The link above was not intended for others to go to for the cars within it. The link is simply an example of how a post/thread written properly, presented nicely, and by a guy just 18 years old, can impress others with it's interesting content. Through his wording, presentation, he immediately gains the respect of others within his first post on our forums. Wish we all could think his way before we bother to post anything.
I don't know if you are aware of this, but you can ignore a post or an entire thread if you so desire.

And FYI, there are no less than five grammatical errors in your edit.

In addition, your edit doesn't make sense. Your post suggested that people read ALL of the comments in the linked thread, but your edit "clarifies" your post by saying the point of the post was to highlight the OP's post in his thread. Apparently you are not one of those who want to immediately gain the respect of others.

As to the notion that my post lacks interesting content, I can't argue with you there.

I think it's just their thing, ya know.

I had an IS300 that I traded for my BRZ. Great car but started needing too many repairs, I would have liked to keep it. I have 4Runner too. Anything done to your Tacoma?

Btw, I talked to Toyota for you. They said, "The shire pleasure of owning 3 of their fine automobiles IS your reward"

Between my dad, brother, and I, we own 2 Supras ('93 and '98), a 1960 FJ40 Land Cruiser, and the FRS. We used to have a '04 Lexus RX330 which was a great car until it started falling apart (from being heavily used & abused everyday) and I sold it for way more than it was actually worth.

None of us are even Toyota fans, they've just made plenty of really good cars throughout the years.

Shit. I might as well,

I have a 1992 Toyota Corolla, 2004 Toyota Camry, 2014 Toyota Prius and a 2013 Toyota (Scion) FRS. We about to get a new Lexus RX too...

For the cars I own, shows I've supported Toyota through different aspects and directions of each car. Whether its economy, sport or environment and even family. Toyota forever.


I think I qualify for a showroom 1998 Toyota Supra Twin Turbo for my loyalty.

Quicksilver and 6Speed please,

Oh and that spoiler too. I'm not a spoiler/turbo type of person. But for the Supra..that's a different story.

Thanks, bye
