We just dont have any power to get out of it.
Have to wait a bit until we reach the next generation before we're free.

Hi all! Long time lurker here, but finally decided to create an account here to post. I've learned a lot of things here

I've had both ends of the spectrum, from Base 2013 FRS to a brand new 2020 BRZ PP. Got the FRS used back in 2016, then struck a deal and upgraded to a new BRZ last year.

Here are some photos

Another lurker here, I was sucked in by the catcall of parts in the classifieds.


She's a 2015 that I got in early 2020 with 18k miles at Toyota of Des Moines. Since then she's gotten better gear oil, whiteline bushings in the rear, and a OFT for E85 since it's actually a money saving choice since E85 is $1.50+ cheaper than regular premium around these parts. I'm one of the fearless that drive around in the winter with RWD, you can only get stuck if you stop!


Ignore the strange angle of the photo, I was hiding some damage from a coon strike that I've had fixed for a couple of months now.

2018 BRZ Limited from CO - like many others I joined for the classifieds. Had a Z years ago and just got my fiance into modding her BRZ. Fun to get back into the forums. Looking forward to learning more about these cars - previous car was a 2016 FRS. Nothing else fit the bill more than this platform for her.

Ok… I’ll keep it going.

Bought my 2018 BRZ 50th Anniversary Edition June 2019, but finally got an account and started posting last week.

Here’s a clip of me dumping the clutch at the car’s first autocross (notice the temp tags haha).

Since then I have run SEVERAL autcross events and two track days. Quite an adjustment coming from a 1972 BMW 2002!!

Performance package, Heritage Blue paint, silver stitching on interior, silver seat belts, 50th anniversary logo on fender, floor mats and seats.

Kind of unique since there was only 250 produced.

181st page seems like a nice secluded place for a first post 😅.
Picked up my first BRZ yesterday, 2014 35000kms. Nothing else to say really as its completely stock. Looking forward putting it to the test and learning from people on here.
