Greetings FT-86 peeps: Just brought home this 2015 BRZ Blue Edition with 4900 miles, P&L turbo kit and a bunch of other goodies. Looking for some help setting up my Ohlins dampers which are super noisy (binding) at the moment. Anyway, here are some pics of my new baby:

Hey all, first post on here. I got this manual CWP/SWP BRZ a few months ago. Figured it was about time I joined this forum.

Hi all,

New here. Picked up a 2016 Halo FR-S in late August. Was tough finding a white automatic in my area, but I did eventually track one down. Bought a cheap set of 16x7 steel gray Rota Slipstreams after break-in, as I had a set of 205/55r16 Hankook RS-3's sitting around from a prior car.

I am actually new. Well, a week on here. (my join date was august but I did nothing as I was and still am quite confused about what to get)

I am deciding on three very different cars, all have MT's.

2017 BRZ Limited with perf.package
2017 VW GTI SE
2017 Mini Cooper Clubman S ALL4

I have a 1st generation mini supercharged still. Nothing like it anymore for a few different reasons. Seems the natural progression is BRZ limited.

I probably will be buying this week.

Come to the dark side, we have cookies. Look up the geometery though. 5" off the ground, 18" center of gravity, .27 drag coeffcient, 2800lbs.. no brainer really. I did test drive a Mini S before I bought mine and it was fun. Still 30k for FWD, meh. The AWD ones were heavy though.

Good morning world. I just picked up my new ride on Monday. She is a 2017 BRZ Sport Tech with MT in WRB. She is replacing my old 1995 Honda Civic CX in PBGP pictured right behind. I picked her up with 16 KM on the odomitor, and currently have just under 300 KM from just two days of driving . Can't wait to get out of the break in period to have some more fun.

Hey there new community. Just got myself a 2013 BRZ with 65k. Have lots of big plans for this baby, but for now just working on getting a hitch and bike rack. Pretty sold on the Torklift hidden one, but if you've got other recommendations I'd love to hear them. Gotta get it tinted too. I had a 2002 Acura RSX type S before and loved it to death. Can't wait to spend the next 5 years or more in the Sub!

I do photo and video work professionally, so get in touch with me if you wanna shoot some stuff with your car.

Hi, moved from a 2014 5-speed Jeep Rubicon to a 2016 Dark Metallic Grey BRZ. The toughest part is getting used to the radically different shifting. But I'm loving this car!

Hello all!

This past weekend, I put an order down for a 2017 BRZ Limited. I couldn't be more excited! Should be here before Christmas.

I'm now regretting not getting the performance package...but I didn't want to wait until January or possibly later (also I thought the package cost much more than it actually does...)
