Hello! '12 Solid Red 7AT

Been a long time lurker, but I finally got a Z! Just picked it up over Labor Day. Spent the last two evenings giving it a fresh coat of wax.

Default Hello! '12 Solid Red 7AT

Been a long time lurker, but I finally got a Z! Just picked it up over Labor Day. Spent the last two evenings giving it a fresh coat of wax. This is my first car I've paid for myself, so I'm new to everything Really looking forward to being a part of the community. Pics coming soon!

I got the base edition, and I've loved every minute so far. I want to get lowering springs first, if anyone has any tips for shops in the Houston area that will install, it would be greatly appreciated!

+10 hp from the Longhorn sticker! Can't wait to get a drop done.

I was considering the BRZ in manual but I daily 80 miles... The auto in the 370 is adequate IMO, but I've only had the car for four days ^_^
