BRZ are still rare since they were limited numbers. GT86 are EVERYWHERE... and slower around the track than the humble Fiesta ST

First batch of them are basically all sold. Will be interesting to see how many are about once the next shipments are here.

Had the T/C cutting power on me on the way home today. Poor FWD platform not fond of torque.

You can also turn it off through the menus, which if I'm not mistaken should mean you can have TC off by default if you want?

Fuel average for today is 7.7 despite driving like an absolute spastic.

Yeah it was. Bit of a stuff around during the process but all fine in the end.

Passenger door handle has been resprayed and doesn't match the rest of the paint properly which is a bit annoying but not much to be done about it.

Do you have a relationship with that dealer?

We did the tint this morning. I would have loved to go 18% again but kept it at 35% for the insurance company.

Saw an Orange ST this morning turning off Hudson Rd, just near Bunnnings at Albion. Number plate was a PPQ jobbie, black with whtie, and it looked like it only had 4 letters/numbers.

Looks the goods. Was it anyone from here?

Speaking of sightings there's a red FiST up in the Dandenong ranges. Seen it a couple of times. Anyone here? Would love a cruise.

Is that the monuntune rear spoiler kit you have on there?
Looks like you've got some springs done too?

Yes mate that's the muontune rear with a set of h&r springs .have a tripple r front one on the way and a fs werks intake too.
