Finally got my DGM BRZ!
I picked up my car Saturday morning and so far it's been a blast to drive. I put about 250 miles on it this weekend. As everyone has mentioned, the steering is completely dialed in and I felt like I immediately knew how the car was going to react to any situation. I've been keeping the revs under 4500 for the time being, but it still feels like it has plenty of power. My only negatives so far are the seat belts rubbing on your neck (many have commented on this), but it really isn't all that bad if you loop it through that part on the seats—hopefully that won't break. My only other slight negative is the ride quality on washboard cement freeways, which we have plenty of in California. I'm coming from a 99 integra gsr on dropped springs, so it's still much better than what I'm used to, but if you were coming from something more plush it might bother you. That said, so far I love this car. It looks even better in person and the handling is fantastic.

Thanks! Yeah it's a hard wait, and thanks to everyone for giving me a distraction until mine arrived.
I haven't taken many photos yet, but here's one more. |
