And this happens

Soooo....my second post in here. my first one was a month ago saying how excited I was to have preordered my Firestorm Monogram, yay!

3 weeks later, no car. Lots of promises and showing me the inventory and where the cars were....and then the sales guy finally calls, and tells me he would not be able to get the car. The other dealerships would not release it to him (obviously), and that they were all accounted for. Well. So he sold me a car he couldn't get. SIgh, can't trust sales...

ANyhooo, so glad that happened, cuz I'm a proud new owner of a '14 WRB BRZ Sport-Tech (limited), with all the bells and whistles, for $3k less than the mono. OTR $32k flat.

New Member here. Sorry I don't have my Fr-S yet, but I WILL be getting one within 12 months. I watch the forums on almost a daily basis, and probably know more about this car then I should. (My wife really gets tired of hearing it). Anyway, I figured I would say hi to everyone and leave my wish list for another time.

About time you joined up! If you would have joined sooner, your car's mirror might not be all wrecked up.

You see we offer "backing up driving instruction" ... mainly for the old coots.

Hey, it was time to mod out the mirrors anyway ....

Been following this car since I First heard about it in 2009, so 12 months really is the home stretch - I even did the first Drive event in NJ. Lately I've been spending a lot of time looking at xpel ultimate (doing a full wrap on the car on day 1). Also, hoping the 2015 comes with a HID option / push start would be nice too. Might just have to go monogram, but they come with extras i really don't need. I'm also looking for a good dealership in south NJ that has an excellent parts and service department to do an exhaust and CAI. Oh yeah, and I want them to deliver the car strait off the truck with the plastics on it to the place I'm getting it wrapped... I'm a little needy.

Just picked mine up a little over a week ago. I'm coming from a 1993 civic dx coupe, so this thing is a massive improvement! Yes, it's a 6 speed


Here it is after washing it for the first time.

Well, HELLO, dabomb and WELCOME to ye ol forum .....

DANG, you might consider cutting the size of your pictures down a tad before posting ..... they are GIANT!

Is your plate in "code" .. ??

Anyway, your car is beautiful .... and it arrived just in time for summer driving....

You might consider an exhaust mod ..... at least the tips ....

[dabomb]

Thanks for the kind words humfrz.
I'll probably be keeping her stock for a good while, maybe get some tips to fill the exhaust cutouts at least... Sorry for the massive pictures lol I just "blurred" the license plates and then uploaded, without even thinking of resizing them
At least you can see all the leds in the tail lights! :P
