Drove strictly hondas for 12 yrs, but became bored, i want to try something new and rwd....last car was a 97 itr so im hoping this car is as responsive....also hope i get something cool for being a part of the first 86... Having a numbered badge like the itrs would be sweet, and of course im a fan of the red stitching....

No worries dude. We have people here who are going to buy ASAP and those watching and waiting. I'm going back to college so I absolutely have to wait.

Welcome!

yeah i have to finish one car and enjoy driving it first before considering a new one lol.

Hey everyone! I'm Kelli, currently in Murfreesboro, TN. Really hoping this car comes out soon with a reasonable MSRP, my 2000 Toyota Celica is on its last leg. I bought it after my tc got totaled and I'm currently putting at least a quart of oil in the car per week to keep it going. Definitely a Toyota loyalist, but I don't know how much longer I can wait before I cave and buy a Hyundai Genesis.

I wanted to introduce myself this morning.

My name is Mike and I live in Nashville, Tennessee. I am planning to buy a new daily driver this spring / summer, and am seriously considering the Scion FR-S, Subaru BRZ or the newly redesigned 2013 Genesis Coupe.

I currently have these three cars as my weekend "toys"...

'91 Acura NSX: I bought the car in 1996 and it currently has 36,600 miles. It has never been in the rain since new. Upgrades include Enkei PF01 wheels with Goodyear F1 GSD3 tires, a Taitec GT Lightweight exhaust and Bilstein shocks.

'95 Toyota Supra SE Hardtop: I bought this car from the original owner about 5 years ago. I have upgraded it with Enkei RP03 wheels, Koni Yellow shocks, an HKS exhaust, an Injen intake, and a really upgraded Alpine / JL Audio sound system.

'99 BMW M3 Convertible: Pretty much stock except for a set of ASA AR1 wheels and Continental DW tires (the attached picture below shows the car with my old TSW wheels I recently replaced).

Here's a few pictures...

Hi !

Hi all, my name is Cliff and I've been reading up on this car for quite a long time (2 years or so off and on...I am well aware many have been reading longer) and am really excited to finally see this thing come out!

Originally had no plans to get a new car up until last January after college when I totaled my '04 Tiburon (I'll chalk it up to youthful stupidity and say lesson learned.) Since then I've been looking for a car that suited my tastes and was on the verge of picking up a genesis coupe when things really started blowing up for the FR-S/BRZ....needless to say I plan on waiting for this now lol

The car will definitely be my DD and getting me out of the loaner my family so graciously allows me to use for work.

I've really always been a fan of the late 80's / 90's JDM cars...well, outside of classic cars. Originally had a '66 Mustang but never the money/parts/time to actually have it in working order thus it was sold =/

Anyway, nice to meet you all and see the enthusiasm surrounding this car.
