    I went to be an Automotive Technician but I ended up having to help run my family's business.
    As for mods I have an intake, exhaust, wheels, coilovers and a stage 1 base tune. Heres a pic. (qualitys a little bad cause of Facebook compression)

    Yes a car enthusiast thread! Currently still driving an 09 Subaru Legacy, back in high school & most of college I worked as a mechanic. My first car was a restored 94 Mazda RX7 with the purple microfiber seats. If I can find my old phone or see if I can find it on the internet I'll be sure to post pics...saddest day when I had to sell it for that much needed cash, holding out for maybe a next gen Supra or Wankel (rotary) motor Mazda as my next car

    We got any car guys on the forum? Forum has been lacking discussion lately and I figured I'm not the only car guy on the forum.

    i personally think its the waytogo and connot wait
    Humans are driving on the road = chinks driving = car crash.

    Robots driving on the road = no chinks = no chance of car accident.

    They're not THAT slow, quicker than most cars but obviously some are faster. It's not all about straight line speed anyway, a BRZ/FRS/GT86 will outpace most 'affordable' cars on a track or on a backroad.

    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!

    This, I feel like most people who bag on the BRZ for being so slow have never actually driven one, they look at the 200hp and compare it to other "fast cars".

    Obviously i'm not beating even a mustang off the line (stock anyways), but at 2700 pounds the car "feels" fast enough and is a ton of fun to drive.

    Another thing that makes it a lot of fun is that I can rev through the gears driving around town without worrying about getting a speeding ticket hahah.

    Personally I mainly care about straight line speed. When I race my camaro I usually only do it at lights or down highways. I dont imagine myself every really racing it like that, so I only need to be able to burn people in a straight line.

    P.s. Ive never lost a race :yunggang:

    I definitely think that is the main issue. It's such a badass looking car. They made it look like a sports car, but drive like a f---ing turtle. I definitely would have thought about getting one a few years ago when I was in the market for a new car. I went with a 2011 Kia Optima SX instead and I love it so far.
