They could've gotten the Toyota airbag/steering wheel center cap too! It's only $800+

Still haven't seen any BRZ/FRS around me on Long Island. I think the closest one to me is Rapidcars' DGM BRZ and that was in the shop for a while. I'll run into one of you guys sooner or later!

It was a special moment.

By the way.. I was also in an ultramarine.
Ah wasn't me then. I left work late but it was around 6.

I'm pretty sure I saw the equivalent of a unicorn... 2 BRZs within a couple hundred feet of eachother.

Saw a SWP BRZ and CBS BRZ at Bay Terrace Shopping Center in Bayside just before 3pm today. The black BRZ was parked and the white was driving by Waldbaums. I was in my GBS trying to catch the white one when I stumbled on the black one.
