The Whiteout Manual is our demo. The Firestorm Automatic is sold (to a forum member). It was available for a little over 15 hours before it sold. The others that we have had come in, without a name on them, have only lasted an hour or two.

I came in before, you told me you wouldnt discount new grad, so i bought my firestorm from DT toyota...

Couldn't make it out to the Aud today, had to go and see my father, hope it was a good turnout though.

Saw a Raven FR-S heading down Westmount at Block Line at 4:30pm today.

Two FR-S (Asphalt and Raven), a BRZ (WRB), a C6 (to eventually become my Firestorm FR-S), and a cop at the far end of the other parking lot who didn't bother us (but surely would have if we'd used the empty parking lot to its potential).

Still, good fun, and it was nice to meet those who came out.

Good fun and great convo - after the cop left we did some doughnuts and a most excellent burnout - thanks to Steve for the 5k tip! Definitely want to do another meet up sometime.

These tires must die!

Get to see everyone. We'll have to do something again after a few more people get their cars. A tour sounds good.

Ok lol I think I saw thorlius today - I was leaving work and someone in a slick black C6 gave me a thumbs up as he drove by. My brother and I were like, "Is he giving US the thumbs up?!" Sorry but I was stunned, actually, so I'm not sure if you saw me but I gave you the peace sign as I finally got on to Albert but you were turning left, so I doubt you saw it.

Anyone use the HD-Radio option in Kitchener? Just curious what HD stations we have around here.

I spotted my twin WRB BRZ Sport-tech driving on HWY 85, heading North near the University exit. I waved, but don't think he saw me. Looked good

Nope. Wasn't me, mine is red! And I've put maybe 100km on it since I signed papers for the FR-S on July 7th, only to keep the brakes from building up rust.

If you see a not-so-slick black Cobalt driver giving you a thumbs up, it's more likely that it's me... that's my winter beater (now my primary car) that'll be listed once the FR-S comes in.

Maybe I'm just a tad biased, but I can understand why a 'vette owner might like the FR-S/BRZ.

That forum member sounds like me based on the timing indicated. 15 hours seemed like an eternity. Had to be respectful of my wife's opinion (a happy wife is a happy life). Surprisingly, she gave her blessing. Honestly went in with the thought to only test drive it and then fell in love with the car and the colour.

Every time I see the red I wonder if I should've got that instead of black. But, if I'd done that, every time I saw the black I would think the same thing.

The only real solution is to get a red one just for the track, and have the back one as dd. LottoMax is $50 million tomorrow right?

Congrats Demandred7!
