Anyway. Lightning Red BRZ heading East on the 224 around Lowe's last Thursday earlier in the evening.

I had a Raven (I think) FR-S following me as I was exiting downtown via the Morrison bridge at around 8:00pm the same day - I let them roll past me since it seemed like they wanted to have a friendly exchange - I waved and the driver gave me the thumbs up - cute little lady passenger in the car. We had a small cruise together again a few minutes later before we parted ways - that made my day!

Ultramarine FR-S with a Greddy exhaust parked at the adidas Employee store in the afternoon on Friday, and I saw an asphalt BRZ or FR-S heading south on Greeley Ave just before noon on Saturday.

I was driving around there on sat at noon. White wheels asphalt frs?

I've spotted your car every time I go to PRE. You really need to start driving it more rather then giving PRE money ahahaha.

My ACT is having similar problems to yours. Care to elaborate? I don't think your the only one. We need to talk E85 btw.

It locks me out of 1st gear after it gets hot (no symptoms when cold). I think it's dragging. The release bearing is also making an annoying noise. I have seen transmissions destroyed by faulty clutches, so I have not pushed it at all until this is resolved. When the car is moving, no lockout or excessive notchiness. Only at a stop after operating temp is reached. I also notice it gets worse in traffic.. more heat, more tolerance deviations being taxed??

Mine seems to just be a bit more sticky in 1st n 2nd. use to be smooth as could be. Maybe I should have PRE look at mine also. I might be seeing pre-mature issues your having. I've only been locked out of first once and that on the way back from the coast. Let the car sit for n hour and ate. Came back and it was fine. lmk what they find. I also only have 2k miles on mine.

I think I saw the same car, heading east on 84 around fairview exit.

Definitely more 86s around now. There's three at my work place....a silver FRS, a dark blue FRS with smoked rears and chrome alloys and my WRB BRZ...nice!!!!

Glad my stripes are getting noticed. They certainly bring out a variety of reactions from folks around here.

I must be thinking about work during my commute cause the only twin I ever see around is ilpad and the dark blue one driving down evergreen early morning.

I'm not headed to Intel, I work next to the hillsboro library.

Cheers!
