This one: 1139 Northeast Grand Avenue, Portland, OR

2:45-3:00 meet time? Could be earlier for me. 11-12 seems like a good time in terms of daylight.

Who's all in??

If it was after 5pm on Thursday I could swing by for some dinner. If not no worries.

Chen - The only red FR-S or BRZ I've seen is the one I bought and one at a dealer.

I'm open to anything. I'm just waiting to hear from everybody before I make an official time. I'll probably either make a decision on it either tonight or early tomorrow.

At first I really wanted a red one. Seems like the least common color. But I have no regret w/ getting the asphalt.

When I first decided on getting a BRZ I saw all the colors but red and was going to get grey but when I saw the red in person I decided that red was my top choice and grey my 2nd and Subaru blue 3rd. All the colors look nice although the orange looks funky in certain lighting.

I hear ya. I saw a ultramarine one for the first time when I went to the blazer/spurs game and I felt like I should have seen all the colors in person before I got mine. The blue is a lot more attractive in person then it was in the brochure. I personally dislike the orange a lot. I feel like that color only belongs on a Chevy Aveo. Lol.

i'm free all day thursday, though i'd prefer to meet up early rather than later in the day.

i saw red, black, asphalt, blue, and orange before i bought my car. i was set on white and i just reconfirmed my decision by passing on said colors.
orange looks great in the sun, but can look pretty dull under the cloudy NW sky.

Also, @Chen yes that is the Red Robin just right up the hill from the Rose Garden arena. It's like 3-4 blocks from Lloyd Ctr.

(He is in trouble at work and i'm his supervisor so I have to usually stay to 3 to give him a 30 minute prep talk........) ANYWHO love incompetent employees.
