I'm always driving through these areas but I only drive the FRS like once or twice a week.

It will be easy to spot me soon though, just got this plate for our FRS :p

Dudes from South Bay have not been receptive to being buddies with me, even some on this forum and other BRZ forums. Most are friendly but the SJ area has seen the biggest proportion of folks who were not receptive to me. I think my forum name throws people off...they aren't expecting a guy like me I guess? Edit: Making sure folks know this is just SOME SJ folks...looks like I need to meet more!

Any BRZ/FR-S I've waved to in Contra Costa county has said "hi" back I love the Bay!!

If ever i see you i'll wave at you or say hi back. I'm like all over the place and im surprised no one has ever spotted me. is it coz i drive a dark colored car? I should just paint my car pearl yellow.

Well, they are making an orange WRX and STi next model year

Yeah, i've seen pics of those orange subies. Hmm...we should play a tag game. who ever is it gets to tag the FRS/BRZ he sees.
