I think the FRS/BRZ makes a better fun daily driver than a project car. Perhaps aesthetically it could use some help here and there but performance wise it's fun enough as-is. ....as a daily driver. Obviously if you want track time with it then by all means, go for it!

Its a great looking and handling car. I just don't like the anemic powerband. I may keep it and just toss on the pruning header, flex fuel, and some lightweight items.

Hi everyone! I've been browsing this forum for way too long without formally introducing myself. After many years of patience, I'll finally be purchasing one of the twins very soon and have been very interested in attending one of the local meet-ups.

Do you guys usually have a monthly meet of some sort? I was having trouble finding information (though I did see something about an annual curry meet (lol) and a bi-weekly fairfax meet (a bit too far for me). Do you guys usually communicate through another channel like a facebook group, or just through here? I'd love to attend the next one! Thanks.

When I replaced my side markers with LEDs I didn't like the look because the brightness is completely different than the DTRL and headlights..

I am so sick and tired of people trying to run me off the road because they can't see me.

I've had 3 separate occasions of when people would start merging and wouldn't even see me there.
