New 10 Series Owner :) - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Zelica · 03-30-2014, 01:08 PM

I recently purchased this new 10 series FRS

. # 1049. //And by recenty, I mean yesterday lol.

M/T, only features it has are Tinted windows, door edge guards (lol....), spoiler.

Got it for 25800~ (Pre tax, tag, doc fees). It had 50 miles on it (I test drove about 15 of them).

My first NEW car ever, I'm 23 (On April 4th), and about to graduate from Georgia Tech with a major in Computer Engineering (August). Got a job as a software engineer lined up with Lockheed Martin in September, so I jumped the gun, bought myself this.

I named her Syl, and her license plate will be "53796C", which is Syl in Hex.

I upgraded from an 05 AT LX civic, so this is my first manual car, i've driven a few before, but I'm a quick learner and I've put like 50 miles on it myself yesterday driving around lol.

I'm happy to join the GT86 family!! Did my research for about two years and had to wait until I could financially afford it.

I'm converting my FRS into a GT86 and the last bit for the exterior that I need are the headlamps, most dealers won't sell them to a customer that doesn't have a 10 series so would it be possible for me to contact you in the future to pay you to acquire the 10 series headlights for me? Welcome to the forums!

FiRStsc10n · 03-30-2014, 05:27 PM

Are they still strict with monogram headlights?

With both 10 series and monogram headlights my dealership wanted my vin at first but the guy was appeasable but discouraged me from buying them, but he said if I wanted to it would be around $2000 I've heard that if you're a 10 series owner (or monogram series owner the whole process of buying them is simple and cheaper, so I'm interested if anyone who has a 10 series or monogram (they have the leather armrests and frameless mirror)would want to be a middle man for me in the future for this, it's cheaper and easier to install the 10 series headlights rather than the JDM 86 ones
