Really? From Wallingford?

I'm hoping my Ultramarine comes in tomorrow. If not, I won't be able to pick it up for another week since I'm traveling. How are you liking the MT so far?

Yea, from Wallingford. They showed some flexibility on my trade and took REALLY good care of me in the finance office after I brought in my mother and asked her to keep bringing up how many cars we've bought from them.

I was going to get the black one near Albany, NY but when they emailed me today to say the Firestorm 6MT came in and asked if I wanted to come see it. I took a short drive on lunch as I work very nearby and fell in love. Came back after work and finished up the paperwork. I couldn't be happier.

2.74% finance rate for 48 months and 12,500.00 for my trade.

Going from the monster Jeep clutch and the 4 foot shift throw back to a sports car is taking a bit but it feels like butter. I'm in love.

~35 miles on her now. LOVING the gas mileage.

They had a guy show up itching to see the FR-S just as I was about to finish up the paperwork. They asked me if I could let him look it over and, of course, I said yes but I held onto the keys.

Nice! We should gather up some locals and meet up.

Me (BRZ) and my dad (911) headed up from Danbury to Lime Rock today on route 7. What a drive in that car and I suggest it to anyone looking for a good couple of hours. Checked out Lime Rock Raceway and walked around as they were getting set for an American Le Mans event this weekend. The BRZ just tore up the turns on Rt. 7.

This. I used to chase Lime Rock visitors in my 240SX up and down that section of 7 back when I was in high school. Absolute blast.

Someone asked about fun roads in New Haven county, and I drive 313 to 67 each day. It's fun in sections, just don't get stuck behind anyone.
