Interesting pair of cars to own!
You all of the performance & sport covered.
I wanted both - for different reasons obviously.
I went with BRZ.

You'll enjoy it. Good luck!

I mean, probably not. I was just saying the GT is capable of towing the weight according to the manual without causing damage.. Ideally I'd just borrow a friends truck, heh.

These cars look soooo good in silver. I have the 2013 - one of the last made.

Enjoy it!

Silver looks nice. Don't see to many of them.

Can't say no to welcoming a fellow enthusiast who loves different types of sports cars.

How do you choose which car you want to take in the morning? Anything in particular sway you one way or another or is it just completely on a whim?

I'm currently shopping between a hyper.blue and a GT/PP. I'm sure $ will be the deciding factor. Insurance gas maintenance etc.

I vote Hyper.Blue.. then again I'm biased.

Because the trunk looks a million times better without "BRZ" and "SUBARU" across the top of it in an ugly position.

I finally get it: When you guys say debadge, you don't necessarily mean the actual badges (the oval logo that most cars have), but the block lettering that so frequently clutters up the sheet metal.

I'm looking at my car out in the parking lot and I can barely see the SUBARU BRZ legend on the trunk lid. But then, for me anyway, the sterling silver metallic paint does a good job of disappearing the lettering. A darker color would set it off.

Congrats on your beautiful choices. I've had a soft spot for recent Mustangs--but for me it would be even more of an indulgence than the BRZ. When I figure out how to upload photos to this forum, I'll show you mine.

Makes sense... that's probably why people debage their cars; other than the BRZs. It just looks cleaner.
