Congrats! Good deal for you, definitely!

For the color debate, WRB would easily come out on top; it's the Subaru color. As much as I love it, I didn't want to get the color everyone else was getting. GBS is just as sexy and much rarer. My speculation of popularity would be the following:

#1 WRB
#2 SWP
#3 SSM
#4 CBS
#5 DGM
#6 GBS
#7 LR

Yeah the haul space isn't too bad for me. I did almost fill the trunk with 2 backpacks and duffel bags though. My 04 wrx of course had more room but the rear seats didn't fold down.

Btw, OP, was this car in either MA or CT? I think I remember seeing a similar BRZ online...
It's possible the original owner posted it in MA because I believe he was in Boston recently. But the car was in Seattle and originally purchased at Carter Subaru in Seattle. Here's the pic that was used in the ad:

I bought it for $26k. It was originally posted for $25.5k but I wanted to ensure I got it because there was so much interest. I believe I saved around $3k.

This is the price I actually purchased the vehicle for from the previous owner. Here in WA state there is required use tax based on the purchase price of a vehicle.

Hey Congrats! I have the exact same car I bought from Carter (shoreline though, not Ballard).

Enjoy it before it starts raining here! Maybe we'll see you at one of the meets?

Impressive. I've been watching autotrader, and they don't have used BRZs anywhere in the Southeast. Keep us posted.
