I wanted a white BRZ Limited also. But I'm glad I didn't try for it. Otherwise, I'd still be car-less now.

I got Whiteout FR-S. Usually drive only to and from work. Between Hawaii Kai and Downtown. About once a week, I go cruise around by myself, so that I can use 100% of my hard-to-get free time driving it.

This car is so perfect (other than some weird noises it makes), I spend all my free time driving it and I didn't even spend time taking pictures of it (other than 2 pics I took on the day I picked it up).

You must be the Whiteout I see around Hawaii Kai every so often. Awesome color!

There is another white FR-S in Hawaii Kai that I see sometimes. If it's at 6:30 am heading to town and 4:00 pm back in Hawaii Kai, then that might be me.

I seen you on release day and recognized your face. I went to castle. Not too sure if we were in the same grad class or not.

Sal asked if I knew you when I went to pick up my car. Lol.

I work in windward city. HORRIBLE parking lot so I try to park by coworkers always.

I was one of the unlucky raffle losers for the first brzs. I was going to wait but didn't know how limited the frs was going to be. On release day it was one of the few left so I had to jump on it. Had I known they were going to be readily available I may have waited for a white frs...

But if I had a white one I would prob be wishing for a black one...

Meh, i love my car.

Like 2gs. Shipping was 350 ish...

Ordered it painted too so should be able to just bolt it on and go. That makes it worth it to me. Plus trd quality should be as good as factory. I just hope they dont come out with it as an option later. Than it will be like the "action package" on the celica and it will become just like seeing a stock frs.

Autocrossed BRZ first time

My son drove the BRZ yesterday. I don't have official times but I think he got 1st in CS.

It poured during my heat (in the Miata) so my times were terrible. That's how it goes in Hilo. My son ran the last heat so by then the track dried out.

There was a FRS and BMW Z something, both automatic, also in CS. The FRS driver used to drive a FWD car before so he was at a disadvantage to my son who learned to drive and competed previously in the Miata.

The Miata is supercharged so it's quite a bit faster but much harder to drive fast than the BRZ.

Sorry, no video. He worked a corner in my heat and I was the starter when he drove.
