News GR Zoo 1st Anniversary 🎂

[GR-Admin]

No long speeches, just a big thanks to everyone for supporting and using this forum over the last 12 months.

GR Zoo went live on 6/12/21 and we didn't know what to expect but support in that time has been fantastic, which has given the forum a solid base for the future.

At the time of writing we have just under 1500 members, who have created almost 2500 threads and over 41000 messages. All time page views in the last 12 months are over 3 Million.

In the real world we've also attended Japfest, Simply Japanese, Sports Cars in the Park and been involved with Drive Limits and Javelin - we'll do our best to do the same in 2023, which is a great way to meet up with other forum members and look at each others cars.

So, thanks for playing your part in this community, please remember to tell others that we exist and carry on enjoying your GR experience.

Chris, Dan, Phillip, David, Matt, Matt, Raf, Will, Andy, Si, Greig & Lauren (plus Fred, Michael & Ross)

Congratulations, and thank you to everyone involved in making the site what it is.

It's genuinely helped the, er, shall we say sometimes challenging experience of pre-ordering, ordering, and waiting for a GR86 to be a less lonely and frustrating journey!

I'll keep coming along and posting into year two, if that's OK with you all...

Streamers and confetti appear to have taken over the forum, just for one day.
If you don't like them, go to your account preferences and disable holiday settings.

Happy Birthday GR-ZOO, and another big thanks from me. Forums of this quality are few and far between, and are to be treasured.

1 year of the Zoo, 2 years since ordering my car and 18 months of ownership tomorrow (2nd service booked for the morning), how time flies…

Happy Anniversary. This forum feels like forums used to pre-social media which is no bad thing. When I ordered the GR86 I wasn't going to bother with forums as the last make one I was on eventually went sour, even though I made some great friends through it. But this forum has been good and helpful in it's info and talking to like minded people. Helped keep the excitement going and really looking forward to the years to come.

I quite like how my fox avatar is looking up at the hat. Can I keep it?

Happy Birthday GR-Zoo! Here's to many years in the future!

The confetti freaked me out a little bit at first, I thought my computer monitor started artifacting!

Congratulations to Chris and the whole team on a succesful first year

(Can we have some snow now the streamers have gone?)

Happy birthday, I can't wait to see the site get shut down so I can get all my time back.

This is the only "social media" I use and thank god everyone on here is normal (ish).
