Smile My new BRZ

Just picked up my new BRZ today...has only 26klms on the clock!

The WR Blue Mica is an amazing colour...but Silver would have to
come a close second.

I was told this was the 3rd car to be delivered in Melbourne...so come
on the other 2 people...where are you?

Havent had a chance to take it for a real spin...but maybe tomorrow
if the rain stops.

Need some thoughts on the indash GPS...which brand to buy or
find something aftermarket?

looking forward to seeing lots more on the road!

Congratulations. I have had my WRB for two weeks. It only had 14km on the clock, now 700km. It is very tight when cold so needs a gentle warm up for a few km's, then it frees up nicely. Enjoy!

Just ordered mine tonight after an awesome test drive. Order no. 10816. WRC Blue Mica A/T BRZ Premium Pack + Rear Diffuser + Floor Mats. I'm comfortable with the wait at this point, gives me time to save and pay for it in full, and maybe buy some small mods for it before it arrives

Silver GT 86 - picked up two weeks ago and now have 650km on it. As said above, it's very tight when cold but frees up really nicely after it warms up.

Absolutely loving this car. Much more than any car I have owned (I've had a few haha)

Dangerfield, update this MoFo!!!!

Not going to make a whole new thread. I think everyone knows what a White GTS looks like by now, but here are a few photos.
