I saw three BRZ's and an FRS today. Manchester Subaru sold a lot of BRZ's already.

Having a rocketbunny BRZ, it happens a lot. (Not trying to sound snide and uppidy lol)

When its from the front I always grin big and throw two thumbs up. They never notice whole taking the picture.

I had someone just a couple days ago park half way up my driveway and start taking pictures...i wasn't sure if I was about to get robbed that night or if he just liked the car...lmfao seemed really weird considering there are much nicer exotics parked thru my neighborhood... various porsches, a couple tesla's, bentleys etc...why would he take pics of my brz...im not to sure.

What color is your car? Whenever I went into Boston everyone was staring at my WRB BRZ. This guy on Storrow Dr. passed me in the right lane, turned his head around 180 degrees and stared at my car for a solid several seconds without looking at the road, haha.

Last fall I was leaving a middle school and some kids walking took out their phones and tried to discretely take pictures, of course I saw, lol

Yeah happened a lot first couple months, now its sometimes. But yeah feels so awesome! I think it will happen a lot more once i get exhaust , because being a DGM car i think people don't notice it as much unless im right in front of them. Other bright colors or noticable colors stick out more.

Mine is black, so I think it's more of a color thing like Marcoscrdo said. Although, there was one dude in an Audi Q5 that was parallel parking into a spot behind me that had this "OH CRAP!" look on his face when he saw me flash the lights and get into it. I'm guessing that's because he probably thought he's glad he didn't hit me while I was watching him park...haha.
