Lots of stares and smiles. Last night I had a Corvette try to "taunt" me lol. I'm assuming he was trying to prove something and scoffed as I kept on cruising lol.

Me and angel drove back roads to wegmans belair to get foods for the shop, had windows down and got raspberried by an SUV waiting for us to get over a 1 lane little bridge! We giggled for a half hour. That was the most interesting reaction I've had so far

The first time I saw this car in person, Ill never forget it.
Crossing the street with a six pack, he stopped at the stop sign to let me cross....I stopped in the middle of the street and just starred.
My heart stopped..I couldn't breathe (Yes I know this is a little intense, but whatever) "That's it...that's really it" I thought,
Than I saw him and thought-"no threat, pretty cute" ...."Must get in the car" "Ask for a ride" started to walk in his direction...than it hit me
"What the fuck am I doing?" -sigh-
2nd time seeing this car on the road
-Had to drive like a nut to catch up(traffic)
I had to brake to match his speed-and gave him a nod -like (you're fucking awesome for having this car) hehe. I hope he went home and was like "yo this chick on the road totally thought I was hot shit for having this car"
you are correct sir

I've said a number of times. Why mess around with the Toyota badge? If you're going to switch it out, put on the prancing horse.

After few months w/ the car I have so many interesting stories almost every day. Yesterday was a nice cool day on my way to the LA fitness w/ all window down cruising, 4 guys in mid 30's in the GTI on my right lane at the red light stop starring at my car and open talked loudly " OMG OMG have to get it, have to get it .... "

I just shrugged and kind of smirked and replied "I don't know I guess we could see." He simply laughed and I told him I would give him a head start.

He proceeded to rev quite a bit and him and the girl looked thrilled. He punched it on green and I proceeded to fly past. He caught up to me at the next light and said "Holy shit, that is insane. What's done to your car?!" I said "about an extra 120whp on you at least and a good deal of torque, full bolt on Revision 3 turbo and currently sitting at nearly 320whp(245hp factory).

It was a good time and I liked the BRZ, definitely has a good road presence. I guess I'm one of those who likes more power. I would like one if it had more go fast, but I don't think i'd sell my mr2 for one.
Great story!

Went to the butchers just before they closed and most of the guys came out taking photos of it. One guy even insisted that Toyota has released a drifting version of this car from the factory.

The other guys where going on about to each other that it was turbo'ed

Another time driving home I had a some cars driving next to me and pointing to each other about the car.

AFAIK that was only for the first 86 sent over, the ones that were sold as 2012's. Could be difference in Canada but to my understanding that was the case...

The coin/pen/phone insert for the cupholder? I got one. Got one with my tC too, so I think it's just a Scion thing. It's pretty useless, though.
