New Kid on the Block - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

503 BRZ · 10-07-2013, 04:32 PM

Hey guys! Wanted to stop in and say hi. Name's Jason and I currently live in Wilsonville, OR.

Finally got out to test-drive the FRS and BRZ yesterday, and walked away with my sights set on the 2014 SWP BRZ. Any recommendations on who/where to buy from, good shops around town, etc?

Sup Natural! I'm ordering a 2014 Premium SWP from CARR Subaru, and it looks like it's going to be coming in near the end of the month. I'd check with them first, they are one of the bigger Subaru dealers in the Portland area.

Welcome to the forum! Best bet is to browse the vendor section and see what parts are available for the car, then order from whoever you feel most comfortable with. With being open for 10 years with over 2000+ Wheels in inventory, 13,000+ Square feet of warehouse space, as well as a hunter road force balancing machine, and touchless mounting equipment, we do quite well with wheels, as well as the 100+ pieces of body work including bumpers, front lips and such in stock, not to mention the large amount of exhausts in stock.

Browse around, and enjoy the forum!

Check out @HeubergerMotors here on the forums I hear people get great deals from them but no first hand experience

Also there will be tons of hazing.

yes, you'll have to run with a hello kitty decal before we offer our friendship. it's to prove your loyalty to us.

You must also have @digital_assassin plastidip your whole car pink and wear only pink clothes for a week, with pink hello kitty bobble-heads in the front and rear windows with "I'm a Barbie girl" playing on your stereo on constant loop.

Thanks for the welcome guys....I guess!

Definitely excited to read up on the BRZ and learn from you guys. Also @PERRIN_Chris, Carr Subaru is actually where I went to test-drive the BRZ and will likely be ordering from there. I got a name through a friend there who hopefully can get me a nice deal on it!

Any cheap and easy mods you guys recommend doing right off the bat? Since it's going to be a couple months before I actually get it, I'll probably start ordering some small things like the side markers before I actually get the car!

Wow, first 3 replies were vendors! Natural! Congrats on joining the forum and the BRZ/FRS family. We're like rednecks here. Funny, welcoming, but we get irrationally drunk and yell from time to time.
