Great Site for Potential and New BRZ owners

Just a simple thank you to the regular contributors on this site and a great site overall.

Have been reading Since Jan . 2014 , and picked up my BRZ limited white 6 speed MT in Late Feb 2014 in Orange County Ca.

Wont do the usual referencing of my past rides , too many and too expensive , suffice to say that I just wanted in this past 50 age life, a straight forward drivers car that was pure and fun to drive which the BRZ has proven many times over.

Grew tired of German branded " myths of longevity " and the maintenance costs . Love the dealerships around me but eventually all those Starbuck coffee drinks and nice baked goods placed in the service depts made me realized my IRA savings was being depleted with each sip and bite.

Keep up the great work , and for those of us who just wish to read and learn before purchasing upgrades or replacing items great job !

Hi everyone!

I've been off and on this site for reference since I bought my '14 BRZ and decided to jump in and join the ranks. I got it as a birthday gift to myself and could not be happier.

Thanks for all the great posts. I look forward to reading your experiences and sharing some of my own.

Hello,
Just bought my '14 BRZ Limited last Monday. Have about 900 miles on it in one week. I absolutely love this car and it's perfect for me. I'm a long time Subaru owner and still have my last car, 2006 Legacy, with 190K on it. I'm not a fan of turbos, but a big driving enthusiast and car guy for 35 years and this is finally the car that fits my personality. It's fast enough, beautiful to look at, and comfortable enough to be my daily driver. I actually look forward to my commute. I do all my own maintenance and repair work, and I'm looking forward to racking up the miles on this car and getting to know it better, and also look forward to a new forum of great people to share that with and learn from. Ed.

What's up guys! Traded in my 2005 Subaru Sti for a 2015 Limited CWP BRZ with 11 miles!
such a fun drive! I plan on getting most of the exterior "Sti" options. Side skirt, front lip and rims. I dont plan on doing any work to the engine until my warranty is up (CBE, and intake only)

Oh my. I just found out that there is a brz equivalent to the frs intro. Leaning toward a new '15 brz (vs. fr-s) in the spring because, omg, WR blue is one of the sexiest colors i've seen, because the HID headlamps are better, and because the Subaru dealer is 1/4 mile from my house and the scion dealer is not.

Hey guys! Just picked up a 2013 brz limited in CBS on monday, not even 8k on the thing. Throwing a post up on both sides since my buddies FRS is the one that got me to look at the 86 in the first place. Looking forward to getting it off the factory stock bandwagon and jump on the mod train once i figure out a direction.

New user, old BRZ

Hey guys, I'm a new member but I've had my BRZ for some time. I enjoy getting out to the track when I can - that is when work allows. Only a few mods, OZ Racing Allegeritas, ADVAN AD08 tyres, STI springs. I'm looking at a few options, based on staying N/A - shortened ratios, Crawford Power Blocks, switchable E85 tune and Cusco suspension. I'm particularly interested in functional aero. Who knows where it'll end up.

Looking forward to getting some good tips.

Hello

New BRZ owner, It was deliverd October 27th a Used Automatic (Wife can't drive stick) 2013 Brz with 18,000km on it. still haven't got to know it very well, but brings a smile to my face when i see it in the drive way I work out of town and it get to sit at home for 9 days at a time and 5 days off been looking at the mods I would like to start with a ecutek tuner but still haven't decided on the tune provider. living in Alberta, Canada there isn't much for tuners. Anyway, before I ramble on too much more nice to be here.
