My suggestion is let Big Two remedy what happend and see if they get your car sorted out with the issues you're having. If all else does indeed fail than at that point try another dealer.
How many others are left?

Autonation anyone? There has to be at least 1 dealer thatll care about my car.
That sucks. I never had issues with them but its like most places. You deal with a group that does a good job then they replace their staff and have all noobs. Hopefully you find someone. Make big two pay for your parts and trouble.

Is this really a thing that happened? They had to have done this intentionally.

Welcome!

Indeed this is a very active community with a range of interest, tastes, and abilities. This keeps the group diverse and entertaining. If there isn't a weekly event to attend someone likely has a project they need a few hands to assist with.

Soooo.....

We all live in a hot azz climate. I researched the crap outa my BRZ purchase. I have learned a lot, but I feel like the locals always know best. You don't ask a deep sea fisherman how to catch trout.

What mods would you do first?

If you have expended an absurd amount of money on your BRZ tuning, how would you do it differently from the start?

Thanks in advance...

The first thing you need to ask yourself is what do you want to do with the car. We have people that track, go FI, AutoX, show, "Low and Slow", Best Daily Driver, Drag, and the list goes on....

I wouldn't go to Camelback Toyota. I test drove their only MTX FRS about 2 months ago. Their techs had installed a TRD exhaust on it and completely screwed it up... the car was belching oil smoke before the first exit on the highway, and it had a grand total of 17 miles on it. I dont know how the hell that's even possible to do, considering the thing is axle back (diff maybe??), but they did it.
