The security cop that sits near where I park at the amusement resort I work at told me a lot of people are stopping and taking pictures of mine.

We had an FR-S driver stopped by our lot a month ago looking for a comparison the same way you did. This was when we still had a BRZ on the lot LOL. I admit I might be a little biased, but I'm definitely leaning more towards the BRZ with its extras. The HID and DRL placement made a huge difference for me. Damn glad I'm at a Subaru dealership and not a Scion, no offense to all the Scion guys.

Best reaction so far: this older Asian couple in a prius pulled up beside me at a light. The lady in the passenger seat was waving at me, finally got my attention, and gave me a huge, enthusiastic thumbs up. She was probably 60, and it was hilariously awesome.

Leaving a gas station, lady working behind the counter comes running out and asks me what year my car is. I tell her it's a 2013, brand new. She says "Wow, looks a lot different than mine." Confused I ask what she drives, she responds, WRX and how amazed she is that they changed it so much.
I tell her it's actually a BRZ, completely new car, and that it's rear wheel drive, she's like "but it's a subaru" I say yes and smile....she stares at it some more and says what a beautiful car it is, thanks me, and walk back in. |

Just got a thumbs up today from some guy in a white WRX passing through Middletown today. Getting used to the random head turns. I also like having a car that puts the local "modified" cars to shame again.

a teenage guy in the passenger seat of a pickup truck put half of his body out the window to catch my attention and give me two thumbs up. This is going 75mph at 11pm on the freeway. Lol

Over the weekend I had a guy in a S2000 following me trying to weave through traffic to catch up. When he did he asked, How was i liking it? and it looks awesome. He also mentioned he would trade in his S2000 to have a BRZ.
Also had a guy in a John Cooper Works Mini pull up next to me asking about it. |

LOL, I was gonna enter it stock too, just for the hell of it. Seriously, how many of these will be at shows?? Saturday night, got a lot of looks... but after doing a fill up, it got weird. Waiting for my wife to leave the WaWa as I was waiting in the car, a guy was checking the car out a lot, then finally decided to peek into the car... boy, he was shocked as hell that I was sitting there. He jumped back and acted like nothing happened. Leaving gas station/Wawa, a black Challenger a few lanes over was STARING at us... anytime I looked over, he was still staring. But he looked like a maniac. No thumbs up, no wave, just a crazy blank stare. Longest red light ever. Few minutes, another black Challenger in front of me pulled over... I went around him, then he started tailing me a few miles... |

Im about 99% positive i caused a fenderbender filling up gas. You woulda thought he saw a sexy lady, Naked, with a sign that says i want you. Got the thumbs up and boom ran into a lady, at a red light, that wasnt so sexy, and destroyed the front end of his car. Her car was a 80s style buick, not a scratch. Those things are tanks.

If you have ever watched that Seinfeld episode where Kramer crashed looking at a lady wearing a bra, then you know you could be sued for this.

I've had people park behind be on the street taking pictures, then as I walk to the car they say it's the first BRZ they've seen in the wild.
