ROFL Hi Five! I couldn't agree more. My car turned 22 years old today, had to do the waterpump, timing belt and lower ball joint. It was worth it.

I shall recite this out loud like a poem every time before I drive.

Really awesome to read something like this.

And to see how much fun the Frs will be check this video out, i'm pretty sure most of us have seen it but if you haven't its pretty cool.

Hypes and more hypes but I choose to believe it. I shall add it to my bible recital.

Why would Toyota do this to us

If your serious about buying the car, have you put a deposit down on an order?

I have and if you haven't, then you'll be waiting longer then 5 months. There is already a waiting list at my local dealer. I'm number 7 or 8

Yeah, all my concerns about this car revolve around some simple facts. I'm looking forward to it finally coming out and being able to drive it and see if the car 'moves' me. Then I will know it is time to buy.

As much as I pour my soul into my life on my weekends, there are lots of cars that have this feeling already. My old S2000 did this. Every time I got in the car it put a smile on my face, but there were many factors involved with that.

Namely I waited 7 years before I made my purchase.

I do enjoy the sentiment shared by everyone here from the ad but it seems too abstract for most Western audiences.

Still I'd love to see this sort of advertising carried over to the U.S., but I'm sure it'd be something like LOL'drift and explaining why it's a boxer engine without AWD.

Soul seeking aside I just wanted a sports car that had a low seating position, looked more like a supercar than a coupe, was a hardtop and was affordable. We would all just assume it would be fun too.

Just called my dealers and none of them are even taking preorders yet. They said they'll call me once they are open to pre-orders.

5 month wait?! I dont think so....at least not in my area. Ive left my name at 3 DC dealerships and all 3 locations told me I was the first one to call about the BRZ/FR-S.

Kinda bummed there is not one bit of Engrish there. No "Pray to the god of Bomex. I hope your speed over the rival"

Proud of Boxer
