It'll be obsolete in 10 years, probably much less when solid state batteries are deployed.

Well brought this bad boy home today!

Maybe it's just in my head but it feels better driving this thing than I remember. So excited to be back in a twin!

Nice! Ya should have held out for the Hakone though!

...JUST KIDDDING!

TylerLieberman · 07-25-2020, 09:34 PM

Nice. Congrats!

Honestly, you get more for your money with the tS. I wish the Hakone came with the upgraded brakes and such. The green makes up for it though lol

Thanks! The Hakone green really is beautiful but this this is great. Plus I got it for less than what I would have paid for the Hakone...how does that make sense?!

Thrilled!!!

Hakone color reminds this one ...

guitarman · 07-25-2020, 11:03 PM

ya, a hakone-coloured brz TS 2020 would be the pinnacle for this car, but I’ll bet you learn to love the white in pretty short order!

nikitopo · 07-25-2020, 11:24 PM

Many performance oriented versions were coming just in white. To name a few:

14R60 (JDM)
GRMN86 (JDM)
GR 86 (JDM)
BRZ tS '20 (NA)

LOL.

I named my car Osborn.

Well done, neither one would’ve been a bad choice.

Me personally, I prefer the BRZ front grill, especially on the +17 models.

For sure.

If the Hakone weren’t a thing, I’m like 99.9% sure I would’ve gotten a white car (86 or BRZ)

Now get a 86 bumper and wrap it hakone green!

I'm sure it will look awesome with the cherry interior!
