Congrats, just noticed your last car was an 02 RSX, had the same car and loved it

To this day, I feel bad about trading it in

Yeah, I still love the RSX, but it is getting on in years and I figured it was time. I still have it, and I know I will be sad when I eventually sell it. It was my first brand new car and also the first car I ever bought on my own.

What a gangster-- I think you'll be glad you got the manual in the end, even if the first few weeks have their interesting moments. It's so much fun rowing the box on a twisty road!

Looks fantastic, I picked up it's identical twin for my personal car! The more I drive it, the more I like it.

This shot does it for me


Thanks,

Gonna wait on the mods for now. Maybe eventually, but for now I am just going to enjoy the car stock.

But thanks for the posts everyone. The community here is awesome.

Its odd that there are still plenty of more ways to see the BRZ. I guess that glare of the sky and the building helps catch a different point of view, which I like.

I sure wish the FR-S was available in that color. That's what I really wanted.
