    I used to not like them either but they have grown on me. Ford also officially unveiled the 2019 Ranger!

    yes quite a few holdens and fords but not like Aus, u probably wouldnt get much Caldinas in USa because they only grey imports.

    Jap cars are cheap af in NZ, probably the best country outside of japan it self for jap cars

    That's cool. Holdens are basically cooler versions of Chevrolet cars, which us Americans are quite envious of. USA doesn't have any Caldinas, or a similar car with a different name actually.

    Jap cars here are more expensive due to high demand and import tax

    I've always been more of an import guy but I always love the '50s-70s muscle cars. Especially the '69 Mustang and Charger :emoji_heart_eyes: Did you hear about the GT500 announcement? Been waiting for it since the GT350

    Thanks man and idk its probably close to stock HP probably like 170ish WHP. Not the quickest thing in a straight line but its a blast to drive in the twisties. As for school I went to one of the better programs in my state and its very hands on. Some dedicated schools are hit or miss like Lincoln tech or UTI, etc. As for employment my school has a partnership with GM where you're almost guaranteed a job at a dealership when you graduate but you have to follow through with it. I never did cause of the family business, but it was still good to go cause I learned a lot and I do some side work for my friends and stuff when they need it.

    I have a black 2013 BRZ, I don't understand the hate on the car at all (aside from the "it's slow").
    I haven't done much yet, Invidia N1 exhaust so far, i'm going to get a header and tune in the spring, probably looking at getting the openflash header/tuner combo as I really like the sound it produces combined with the N1.

    I'll post pics later, tons of snow here right now (I'm in Canada).

    Yours is looking clean man!

    OFT is what I use but I don't have headers yet so I just have a stage 1 tune. I have some cheap Megan Racing cat back for now but I'm getting a full exhaust this spring or summer. Probably going to get the MXP RS Catback it sounds sooooo good and the exact sound I want, It really gives the car presence without being obnoxious (in my opinion).
