I don't mind the GTO, but the Blue 86 looks awesome

It's actually one of the very few Aus delivered 3000GT's. Number plates came with the car when the guy bought it.

It's a great fun car to drive, smashes the 86 in power, and handles really well (thanks to 4 wheel steering), but it feels really dated inside.

Yeah, I wouldn't imagine there to be to many in Aus. If I remember correctly, there was a VR4 turbo, and a twin turbo version as well.
I didn't know they were 4 wheel steering, learn something new everyday

Saw the Galaxy Blue Silica BRZ yesterday - man what a fantastic colour! The grey and blue really have to be seen in person to appreciate them for all their awesomeness.

Great choice Gir!

Finally got my car opticoated by Platinum Paint Protection. Guy did an awesome job, and it only $665 for for paint correction and application, and full interior protection as well.

That's a good price including full interior!
Was there a substantial difference after it was opticoated?
