i went and did it, i'm one of you guys now.

so the job gods smiled upon me and i finally was put in a position to afford a new car and after much deliberating and hand wringing and test driving a bmw 228i, renting and then testing an ecoboost mustang and test driving an frs and also 3 different brz's - i went to my local subie dealer when i got off work and got an amazing deal on a silver brz that they had in the lot.

my plans: install the eibach prokits (that i'd already bought) and then leave the damn thing alone and enjoy the hell out of driving it.

pictures: its almost 10 o clock so.. maybe another day.

May I ask how much the car was before tax, title and licensing? I'm waiting for a 2016... but I heard they aren't going to be available until October.
