Random question, does anybody in SE Michigan have an aftermarket armrest such as the Carsmo or 86NZ one? I'm looking to purchase but would like to feel how the armrest is while sitting in the driver seat.

Thanks!

Hmmm.. I'm having a little dilemma right now. I have the oppurtunity to get either a Black Limited trim or a Galaxy Blue Premium. I like Galaxy blue more than black but I also want things like the keyless entry in the Limited trim. Are the headlights in the premium the same as the ones in the limited? I thought i remember hearing somewhere that the limited has better headlights.

Haha okay so who owns the gray brz I just raced on squirrel??

I'm pretty sure that the limited and premium headlights are the same. You might be thinking BRZ vs. FRS. The BRZ has much better lights (in both looks and function).

Cool. If the headlights are the same, i'll get the premium. I like the color better on the premium anyway.

I have the premium, same headlights, the only differences are the seats are cloth with no seat heater, no rear spoiler, manual climate control system, no push start, no prox key system.

Still has HIDS and touchscreen nav.

I may or may not have just put a deposit down on a GBS BRZ premium.

Also, passed a SWP BRZ at maple and haggerty about noon.

eikond · 03-09-2013, 02:23 PM

took my BRZ out of storage today. Wow I really missed that car!

haha that could be so many of us now. I think we are identifying by our mods

limited matte black wheels, tint, black out reverse light = kask2 6.0
premium white w/o tint- callmedave
premuim w/ tint, exhaust and CF mirrors= me

and i think there are a few others, not to mention the frs's here too
white seems to be popular...or at least the color dealers have been ordering

I don't know about the wheels since the car was moving at the time but i don't remember seeing a tint.

Btw, i noticed your sig says you have Opticoat on your BRZ. WHere did you get it done? I'm planning on getting it on mine when it arrives.

His name is david fermani and he is on the forum here. He is awesome, im pretty sure he has done all the MI opticoated BRZs and he defintiely knows what he is talking about. He did my paint correction and coating and it makes a pretty huge difference. He is based in grosse pointe but i think he has a shop in troy that he said he can do it at sometimes if you dont have a garage. If you want i'll give you his email or phone #

Thanks. His info would be great. I'll definitely get in contact with him once i have a better idea of when my car will arrive. Right now it's just "It'll probably be around end of April but we don't really know"
