Anyone in the Columbia, SC area? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

What the title says...

Since the FR-S / BRZ has been available, I have only seen 1 Whiteout FR-S in Lexington, SC.

I was wondering if there are any more of you lurking around in the shadows

Once I get my FR-S in mid-January it'll be nice to know if there are others in the area to get together with from time to time.

I've got a Red FR-S in Charleston. I've seen a silver and a white FR-S around the area. It'd be great to get a picture of them all together.

I am in the area. I have also seen a white FR-S and a dark grey FR-S on the road.

I'm in Charlotte. Not that far from Columbia.

I live in Charlotte but have been working in Columbia, during the week days, since last May. I actually bought my argento frs down there in July at Dyer Toyota. Im usually at the Sheraton downtown Mon-thursday...there is another argento frs right near there that i always see parked.

I will be back down there in Jan after the holidays.

I work in Greenville SC but live in the powdersville/Easley area. I have a firestorm frs. I have seen a raven, two firestorms, wrb brz and then a whiteout frs on the Parkway a few weeks back.

Dic.k Dyer Toyota on I-77? That's where I plan on purchasing mine. They treated me good when I had my tC, so I feel comfortable going back, but always good to see other's experiences

I was actually surprised I haven't seen more in the area, as Columbia is one (the?) largest city in SC, I figured I'd have seen more by now. I have YET to see a BRZ.

As for those who live in the Charleston area, my parents live in Summerville, SC and I visit them fairly often; Once I purchase, I'd love to meet up with you guys

Columbia is lacking overall in its car community. You're much more likely to see a V6 Camaro on 22" rimz or a "stanced" '89 civic than a nice sports car like the twins. My BRZ gets no attention whatsoever around town.

Kilzod · 12-22-2012, 10:33 PM

Agreed 100% I see so many Impalas/Crown Vics with massive wheels I could cry.

I have actually seen a few v6 Camaro's on 20's and 22's.

I can respect a TASTEFULLY modified vehicle of any kind, but the majority of these cars out there are just fking stupid looking. Sorry to any who owns one of theses hoopdies.

There's no need to apologize when it's the awful truth. It's nice to find someone local who's not into all that jazz.

I used to manage a convenience store/gas station on Two Notch Road in Columbia SC, and I've had plenty of laughs at these idiots with these cars.

It's especially priceless when you see them try to do burnouts or show off. I was working one night and some a.hole came in and I told him I thought his car was retarded... He proceeded to try to show off, and one of his $1k 26" wheels popped off. I lmao'd for a while on that one.

Ocala FR-S · 12-22-2012, 10:46 PM

I wish I could help you out. I'm sitting here at my in-laws in Lexington SC, but sadly the FR-S is back at home in Florida. If during some future holiday, you see a stranger and his family in a Dark Blue Highlander waving at you, consider it an FR-S sighting in spirit.

immortal_suby · 12-23-2012, 09:24 AM

I'm in Greenville, SC (Greer)
I hardly ever see another FRS or BRZ and I definitely don't see them when I am in mine. It's always when we're in the wife's outback.
