BRZ test drive invite - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I posted this up in the Miami thread, let's hope we can actually drive the BRZ. Did you see what other cars they're bringing out? How boring.

MarkRacerX · 03-23-2012, 07:06 PM

Right on! Just to finally see a BRZ in person, coffee is just a bonus !!!

Dave-ROR · 03-24-2012, 01:44 AM

I confirmed this btw. It is a test drive event. For some reason the dealer getting 3 cars for the year gets to host it. Go figure. Sadly I can't make it own. Hockey game at 1:30 so Id have to leave by 9:05 lol

Well then. Never mind. Maybe Zgrinch will take advantage of this.

Saw this too late...and my day is full with kids events and it would be a 5 1/2hr drive for me.

My first test drive will be driving mine off the lot.

I called the dealer and John told me yeah, according to the invitation it will be a test drive event even the BRZ... This did not convince me because if you read the invitation is wrritten in certain way, to say like " The BRZ will be there, but this other cars are the ones you can test drive". So I went ahead and called the Starbuks where the car is actually going to be. The lady told me "I don't think they will allow people to drive the sports car, they will allow other cars though" So there you have it. I am working and am willing to leave work and come back but it's an hour away and if I'm not assured I can drive it, I've already sat on it so no point on doing it.

Now.... looking forward to someone saying they actually drove it so I can light a match and set myself on fire

Update: John just called me back and what do you know... He told me don't come here man, no test drives for the BRZ so puzzle solved, I live another day

oh how pissed I would have been if I made the 5hr drive and not get a test drive. Oh well, for those going, get some pics and maybe they will let you sit in it, or maybe a passenger ride.

Have fun

I know! I was reading this thread, and reading about you guys coming down from Tampa or close by.... My GOD! I guess you would have had to spend the night at south beach or something. The Ultra festival is happening now so there's a lot of people around.

aloretoc · 03-24-2012, 12:07 PM

Yeah.... No test drive... But you can sit on it and "play" with it... Took some pictures of it... It's more beautiful in person than all the pictures I have seen... I love it

Glad you liked it. That is exactly how I felt sitting in the one at the Atlanta show.

This car cannot get here faster enough

tranzformer · 03-24-2012, 12:40 PM

Could they be any more vague? Trying to hype the car up with a "test drive event" where you can't drive it. Lol Happ Dave and Zgrinch didn't make the long trip for nothing.
