Saw a silver BRZ on William Nicol ( near the freeway ) yesterday at about 13:00. It still had plastics covers on the seats , so perhaps he was doing a PDI ? He was hammering it though - wouldn't be happy if that was my car.

SH$T! Could be mine!

First BRZ's have arrived in JHB and she went to get sound today....

I'll find out what route she took - was supposed to be going to Honeycrest Shopping Centre, Cnr Beyers Naude & Duiker Streets, Randparkridge.

Was it near there?

Starting to see more and more GT86s on the roads since I've been looking. I live in Durbanville work in Century City and I occasionally pass a white 86 on the back roads between them. I've also seen a red one on the same road.

Apparently, there's a white one that parks at Tyger Valley Centre most days.

And I saw an Indian guy in a Raven 86 High Spec today at Tyger Valley as well. Registration was RICKY 86 - WP.

Any of these any of you guys (or gals)?

Saw a white one at the Engen in Claremont opposite the Virgin active.

Then saw another white one inside the Shoenenburg Estate in Somerset West.

Anyone here?

too be fair to most owners, i never thought of joining a forum or owners club either before getting this car...
and the toyota owners club (http://sa.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/) doesn't even have a section for the 86

Yeah, I noticed that too. But then some forums had about 4 posts, so I figured it wasn't active enough to matter anyway.

No , if you turn onto William Nicol from the highway , just as you get to the Sloan Street robot , I saw him there ( I was going the other way ).

Spotted a white high spec with properly painted TRD kit on Rooihuiskraal rd in Centurion last night. Never realised those DRL's were so bright unless he's modded the wiring or something.
