I don't know but it's doubtful. I don't think that the shipping routes actually pass that close to Hawaii and I don't think they would make a big detour just to drop off a few cars. But I may be wrong.

Hi everyone from the Middle East!

Former NC MX-5 owner, I've just picked up the first 86 sold in Dubai (whiteout MT, natch).

Just over 500km on the clock so far and loving every minute of it.

DeeezNuuuts83 · 06-22-2012, 11:33 AM

Congrats. What is the wheel/tire size combo of that model?

Proud of BOXER · 06-23-2012, 10:38 AM

hey friends!

I'm a Toyobaru fan. I currently own 72 and 74 celicas, a 75 Hilux, and my last "real" car was an 08 Forester XT with STI swap. I also owned a bugeye WRX in the past, so I have a foot in both worlds.

Looking and hoping to find me a BRZ. A nice middle of the road between old Toyotas and modern Subarus.

Hey everyone, my whiteout FR-S will be here either end of next week or early the following week. St. Louis area, but had to travel 90 miles out to find one.

Hello everyone!

I've been folowing the development of this car since the first prototype was unvieled.

I put a deposit on a Hot lava FR-S on june 8, taking delivery on june 27. Can't wait!

SemperFi · 06-23-2012, 10:37 PM

Picked up my Raven FR-S Last night, Went from an R32 to it. Loving the random looks I get.

Hello everyone!

My name is Ben, from Alberta. I'll be honest, I've been following the news on this website for a few months, and also reading how people are liking their new cars and their opinions, etc. I am really interested in this car, but unfortunately I don't think it is very practical especially in Edmonton, where the snow piles up incredibly, and the destroyed roads.

ContainerGuy · 06-24-2012, 02:50 PM

Hey guys,
I've had my FR-S (silver) on order for about two weeks now. My patience is starting to wear off. Thanks to makers and members of this forum for fueling the excitement and educating us all. Looking forward to mods and going to the track.

Deebeaux · 06-24-2012, 06:41 PM

Stumbled across this forum trying to learn more about the FR-S. Didn't really consider it until I was at the dealer this weekend with the Prius (wife's) and my '08 xB. Apparently I was staring at the car too hard because a salesman hit the unlock button on the key fob and invited me in. Long story short I liked it and since I've had such a hard time trying to sell the xB considering just trading it in on an FR-S. Haven't gone for a test drive yet because I as pressed for time, but will try to do that soon. I've had several cars in my day, most notably a few MKIII ('86.5-'92) Supra Turbos. Looking for something fun to cruise on the weekends and take to the track occasionally. Anyway, seems like a good place to hang out and soak up some info. If I cross into the realm of ownership I plan on hanging out a bit more.

I'm Dave and i have been lurking around this forum for months now. Finally pulled the trigger and put a deposit on a Whiteout 6MT toady!!!! Now the wait...

Just wanted to stop in and say hello. New BRZ owner in Sarasota, Florida. Absolutely loving the car so far!

I'm looking forward to the Florida BRZ population growing - maybe have some meets and possibly a track day.

Party on.....Doug
