Satin White BRZ (Zeus)

From economy car to super awesome car. I traded in my nice but not my style 2011 Hyundai Sonata for a BRZ. Now, I am a muscle car man by nature with how my father raised me. I tested out many Camaros, Challengers, and GTO's (no crappy Fords) on my journey to a new car.. But they all seemed too common and none of them overwhelmed me with quality. The looks were their one redeeming quality aside from the obvious (huge engines of course). My father was all about the muscle cars and set on a Camaro being my next car.

But ultimately it was my decision and I looked around in the Asian market and liked alot of what I saw. I drove the 370z, but it was really pricey for the year (2009) as well as a Hyundai Genesis that didn't pan out because the ride wasn't really that good and things were already rattling (not to mention the bland interior). I came across the BRZ just cruising around. I had never heard of it and went in for a test drive and instantly fell in love. I had never been in a car more fun to drive. The BRZ had everything I wanted in a car not to mention a bonus of pretty good gas mileage.

Now that I gave you the background..

Meet my Satin White BRZ aka Zeus!

Mods So Far
1.Borla Cat-Back Exhaust
2.Weathertech floor mats (not much of a mod I know.)
3.Custom made Cold Air intake. Vigilant Motorsports
4.Subaru Performance Tuning Battery and Oil Cap (Subbie Blue)
5.Tinted Windows- 35%
6.Rally Armor Mud Flaps

Santa brought a weather resistant cover for those pesky days in Illinois with hail etc.

With the mods that I'm making I'd like to stick to a blue, white, black on the outside and a red, black, and CF on the inside.

Projected Mods
Shift Knob (Preferrably Red, Black, or CF.)
Shark Fin Antenna
Armrest
Alcantara Piece above the Speedometer and whatnot
LED Dome Light
Valenti Reverse Light
Footwell Lights
Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel Bezel and Shift Bezel
I'd like to change the color of the dash piece next to the radio and the grips on the door handles, open to suggestions!! Like to keep to the red, black, CF on the inside.
Buddy Club Taillights or Spyder
Blue Rota RT5 Rims 18x8
Eibach Pro-Kit Lowering Springs
LONG TIME DOWN THE ROAD- TURBO KIT!!!

Thanks! I was really wanting a WR blue one but it was so hard to find around the time I was looking to buy one. The white has really grown on me and I think i may like it more because of how much goes with white. Not to mention how good the satin white looks, quite fancy!
