Brand new here, I just purchased a 2020 Toyota 86 Hakone Edition and I am having a lot of fun driving it on some twisty roads. I plan on keeping it stock for awhile (?) and even though it is automatic, the paddle shifters bring a smile to my face, even for an old fart like me (nearly 60).

Hi All,

I recently purchased a '14 BRZ that needed a little bit of love. Sounded like a fun Covid project, and I'm looking forward to getting it sorted and out on track!

Hello! I have been a BRZ fan for quite awhile and finally bought my first one last week, the 2020 BRZ tS. Not planning on too many mods if any, so the tS was definitely the one I wanted. Figured I better jump on it or it would be gone soon due to good weather finally coming to the upper-midwest.

I am over the moon and absolutely love this car.

I went low flash and chose the pearl white. Hopefully my excessive speed goes unnoticed . My first actual sports car and the cornering and braking forces are stunning.. Super happy to have such an engaging car.

My first sports car too! Definitely more attention getting. Excellent choice! The white has a stunning finish up close.

Yeah it’s a great color up close. The pearl is a nice touch. The world rally blue on yours is amazing! I saw a tS in WRB and really liked it.

Hi there from PA

Hi everyone! I am a huge fan of Subaru and own my lifetime third Outback and absolutely love it (except poor CVT acceleration of course). But this year I was looking for something sporty to replace my everyday Hyundai and after looking at many different cars (US muscle, EU, Korean, Japanese) I stopped at guess what... BRZ! And that was love from first sight! I already got STI mod virus and have added some visual touches. Waiting for package from Japan with more stuff... More pictures to come!

Just picked up a ts today after reading through the should I buy in the pandemic thread. Figured the low rates and 29k was risk I could bear.






This thing is slow and sounds very underwhelming. Plan to be here and learn how to best squander my money on this thing.

Other ride is a Volvo C30 STAGE 3: 311hp/372lb-ft

Hello. New to the forum. Have been interested in getting a twin for a long time.
Picked up a 2017 series.yellow
As an autoxer for a few years I will be modifying it to STX specs.
Seen lots of good advice in here.
Previously had an '09 WRX for 9 years, feels good to have a fun Subaru again.

Good Afternoon All!

Excited to be a part of the community. I was with the GC (RS25) community for a long time and pumped to have a Subaru again (Okay, Scion.....). I picked up a higher mileage 2013 FRS from a friend in Nov. 2019. After installing a clutch and a few other minor things, its running great and fun to drive to the office.

My intention are to use this car for HPDE (if and when the opportunity arises) and potentially some R&D for minor projects. I am actively involved with an AER endurance racing team that runs an FRS.
