Since it's only a minor condensation, I'll wait until my 7500 mile service to save a trip. I've never left the car in the rain, so it might get bad in the rain. In that case, I'll take it in right away.

Otherwise, the car is perfect that there is nothin I want to modify. Mine will be kept stock (except for tint).
Im glad to see you on here as well. i think you should bring up your problems to scion and see if theres something they can do about that. so have anyone seen other frs or brz on the road?

2,200 miles so far. I just took it in to get my oil changed. Found out that I had ANOTHER nail in the other tire... Just my luck. Thankfull, they were able to patch this one.

I've seen maybe 3 others on the road. A silver one near stadium, an asphalt near Aiea heights, and a firestorm near Pearl Harbor.

Ya, I'll be bringing up the condensation and the rear deck popping noise problems to Scion but probably wait until the 7500 miles service since they're minor problems. Clutch noise seems to be normal according to what people says and it's hardly noticeable after 1000 miles break-in. I just made 1500 this morning.

So far, I saw FR-S 3 times (white x 2 & red x 1) and BRZ 0 time.

So a little birddie has told me that Servco has got three more BRZs in. All limiteds, one white automatic, one World Rally Blue manual, and one black manual.

Got a friend who works at Servco so if anyone is interested, PM me and I can pass the info along.

>>> THIS <<< must be the same cars you're talking about.
I'm surprised...
I was thinking these cars would sell out as soon as they come in (or even before they come in) until at least until the end of this year.
Now, it even have time to come up on craigslist.

Perhaps because people don't know they're here so Servco is spreading the word?

I still think bringing in only limiteds is a bad move. I think premiums would have been much easier too sell.

I was thinking more like,
30 people would sign up for the BRZ lottery.
20 people would line up by the Scion door on June 1st.
3 to 5 months waiting list through the end of the year.

But then, you know how many people signed up for BRZ lottery and I know how many people lined up by the Scion door.
I guess there aren't many people like us anymore, which is kind of sad.
