Hey guys,

My Dark Gray Metallic 6MT BRZ should be at the dealer by the end of the week. Can't wait to hit the road in it!

I prefer my cars to have traction, especially in the cold. Plus my car is more or less put away for the winter so I'm not keen on getting it out until it gets warmer.

Likewise! Loving it so far as a daily driver. Already almost over 2000 miles in the 3 weeks I've had it, haha.

I've got just over 3500 miles now in about a month and a half. It's the best daily I've ever had.

I have a winter-prepped speed3, so I have no reason to drive mine in the snow. BRZ is my track toy and probably summer DD, but in the winter it goes to sleep.

Loving it! Just curious, did you guys end up purchasing any extended warranty for the car? Considering the 6yr/80k was so cheap, I went with it considering how much I knew I'd be driving this thing.

No I didn't get the extended. I figured I'd void soon anyway.
