Betcha can't wait! You're lucky; dealers around here don't have demo cars so no test drives

@Mundy, pics of Supra? You can post them in off-topic.

See you both 'round!

Hello! My name is Eddie. From Orlando, Fl. I just bought my dream car, FR-S in Whiteout. I work in the retail industry but I have been working on and off in cars since 2003. At one point had a Black Cherry Pearl Scion tC, and added a few DIY tutorials in Scionlife.com. Hopefully I will be doing the same here. I'm a amateur photographer and I love doing mini photo shoots on cars. Just did a small one with my car. I introduce to you all, "Salvatore", my new Scion. Thank you all for your friendliness.

What is up yo! My name is Fei-Long and yes like the street fighter character lol.

I've been checking out the forum but never got around to making an account until today when one of my co-worker said why am I not on this forum?! haha

I picked up my FR-S back in May. A friend of mine wanted to do a photoshoot of the car so I let him. Here is one of the photos.

Hi Everyone!

My name is Shawn, 28 years old from little old Rhode Island.

I too have been watching this forum since our 86's came out. I have learned quite a bit from reading various threads. That can be scary as well since it will help to spend my money a whole lot faster lol. Looking forward to becoming more active on this forum and continuing to take advice.
I am a sales manager for a Toyota/Scion dealer and scooped up a firestorm manual.

Hope to see some of you out there
On the road!

Hello all

It's been a long time coming... I actually purchased my Argento FR-S back in August, and signed up to the forum shortly afterward. Should have said hello earlier! Thanks to you all for having an awesome community to share ideas and passion for driving (the toyobaru twins)!

Hey everyone,

I've put my deposit down for a white manual frs at Crown Toyota/Scion in Ontario, CA. They asked for MSRP, so I'm paying MSPR + "premium" paint + wheel locks. The rep called me earlier today stating they found one in my configuration in Japan, shipping Oct 18th, and should be here mid november. pretty cool to know. I asked them not to drill the front bumper and she said thats pretty standard now for this type of car. Their customer service seems pretty good as they are keeping me up to date, so I'm happy so far.

My car history? 97 pathfinder > 2006 camry > 2000 S2000 > 2010 VW GTI > now a 2013 FRS.

-Nit
