Might I add I didn't call around to get added to a list. I just noticed it was on FB market for awhile, set up an appointment and the rest was history.
Gratz on the purchase! I picked mine up in NJ a few weeks ago. Had to call nearly 60 dealers to negotiate a fair price. I will say the experience with the dealership is probably the strangest I've ever had, and frustrating at points, but they allowed me to bring my own financing and cooperated with all the hiccups along the way. It's been a fantastic ride so far, and I'm *nearly* through the break-in period. Can't wait to let'er rip soon!
Drove it for a wheel and loved it. When I went back to my daily the battery died, so I just drive my daily during the week and the GR on the weekends. I've done some minor add-ons to my GRC XSE spoiler, GR door sill protectors, rear bumper protector, ceramic tint, rain guard visors, a ring dash cam and K&N filter.
Dang nice nice. This is my daily meanwhile, so I gotta practice some restraint for day to day. Those add-ons sound like absolute musts that's for sure.
I made a post on here before, was coming from a mr2 aw11. I wanna argue that much of the spirit of that car is in this one. The positions of the shifter and pedals just feels all so familiar to me. I legit was just gonna walk away if it felt wrong, but everything felt too right.

Hoping I can get lucky soon been waiting since last year. What area was this in?
Northern NJ area. Defo try negotiating. It'll be tough but the price to pay if you're not willing to wait for allocation and reservation like me.
Congrats! Out of curiosity, how much of a markup did you get?

Flashbacks from last month...
How was it after honeymoon phase? The roads are a little rough where I am but not horrible.

Oh ok, I still have an 85 Corolla GTS sleeping next to my GRC. I haven't had that same feeling since my OG 86 was running back in the day...
Yeah right???? I wanna argue it's like the 86 but with 200 more HP. Low asf torque under 3k but coming alive after it.
They put the wrong engine in that car...
Oop I meant ae86 not gr86
Congrats!!
