My car has been at the dealership for a week. I haven't gone to visit. They still need to install all the goodies I want . Fingers crossed I hope it will be done this Friday. I can't go another weekend without it .
@sav, I have seen that video clip quite a few times . |

I finally got my car. I also had the dealership install the BRZ exhaust and WOW! I am very happy with the exhaust and I am very very happy with the car overall. So thank you to everyone that advised me. Driving under bridges, tunnels or even tolls is just the best thing ever .
There were a few mistakes made by the dealership so I sent it back. Very sad having to part with the car after 3 days, but now I am excited all over again waiting to see the finished result again |

Nothing too serious.
1) There was glue and light scratches on the roof from the stickers 2) The exhaust was protruding out more on the right side, so it was not fitted straight 3) The panel beaters painted the front spoiler incorrectly, they missed the black finishing on the inside grill. 4) The day time running lights were not working ( this is fixed now, relay problem). 5) They made a mistake with ordering the TRD boot spoiler instead of the TRD bumper. Which is ok since they are covering the extra cost 6) There was some strange funny off yellow liquid next to the break fluid tank on the black thing ( I don't know what it is). It might be data dot spray. |
