Finaly, my Galaxy Blue Silica!

Just like what the title says. Finally picked it up today! Test drove before I bought it of course and was super impressed! I really wanted to hate the car but I couldn't!

My only quirk are the tires. They are waaaay to skinny. It looks funny for a low, wide, slung car like this. But, and it's a big but, the skinny tires allows for quick spin outs and easy start for drifts

It really is easy to find the limits of this car. I am......happy! Loss of words, but I am utterly, and stupendously happy.

One of my friends knows a professional photographer and they want to do a photo shoot of my car for their website. I think we temporarily planned for June 23rd, so I'll post official pics at a separate thread in the Pictures section of this forum. In the mean time....

Also looking forward to getting mine next week, and definitely excited to start seeing GBS pics. Was getting a little weary of WRB and DGM (although they are both gorgeous).

Looks really nice man!

I need to see WRB and GBS sitting next to each other on a sunny day.. in person.. I went with WRB, but kept thinking I should have gotten GBS... I need to see them side by side someday so that I know for sure.

Love it! This was my next choice if I didn't get a WRB.

100% agreed. I would've gotten the WRB but everyone is gonna have it. I wanted something different, color-wise.

Let's just hope there are not alot of Ultramarines, hehehe.

That is a nice color. Both blues look good.

Grats buddy!

I hope I'd be the first to own a yellow BRZ. ;D

True, but that will only effect you when you go to BRZ meets. The % of BRZ's you see on the road will be so small anyways.
