Unvevo's less than exciting BRZ build.

Hi I'm Unvevo. I got my name from my imaginary Mexican pop band. I am addicted to cars. I was playing forza 5 last month and really like the way the brz handled in the game. I put the controller down and called the closest subaru dealer who is 2 hours away. I told him I would like to order a brz. He asked if driven one, ofcourse I have... In game. He said he will have the one I'm looking for coming in around a month from now. I have him my credit card number and told him I will take it. A short few weeks later I get a call it came in. The salesmen said he couldnt be there until 7pm. I hauled ass to Amarillo to pick it up. I didn't want a test drive. I went signed some paper work. Then set through the whole extended warranty pitch. Finally got to go get in my new brz. The salesman comes out and sits in the car and precedes to point out all the obvious things in the car. Cup holders, glove box, a/c controls... I had to twill him to get out of the car. I can't stand that I know more about the car from 2 days of reading on the forum then he does after selling them for 2 years.

This is her outside the dealership. I was finally able to take this car in. My first time in one. My impression is the suspension is amazing. It has no power which I knew coming in. The interior is set up nice. The cockpit is small for a big guy. But I already love this car.


Got her with only 10 miles. Forgot to take an pic until I was cruising.

I got her home to sit with my collection of cars. 96 turbo supra, 89 rb25 caged drift s13 coupe, 03 lb7 modded durtymax truck, 95 sr20 caged drift s14, 95 rb25 s14 and now the 14 brz.

My first mod is the burk twin exhaust muffler delete.
The tone is perfect. Brings out the low boxster rumble. It's lacking in the high rpms at WOT. But for the price you can't beat it!

I have purchased or am waiting on for venders to pm me on these parts:
Flat black xxr 527 18×8.75 +35
Another set of stock tpms sensors
Full lip kit
Flasher upgrade
1" drop springs
Rlca and front camber bolts
Carbon interior parts
Led upgrades
Perrin plate mount
Weathertech floormats

I'm am looking to have a sick ass looking DD that looks and sounds good.

Yeah I thought it was pretty funny. If I didn't do it quick I would have changed my mind.

Installed the lip kit today. Went on pretty easy. Looks a lot better but needs lowered and wheels. Tire shop said my tires would be in 3 days ago. Still not in :/. Header and suspension will be in tomorrow, hopefully can install after work.
