Picked up my new Firestorm FR-S last Friday!

I finally found a brand new 6 speed manual Firestorm red FR-S in Maryland last week, and a day later I had already put down a deposit and bought a plane ticket to go pick it up! I picked it up Friday and had a fantastic drive (besides DC traffic), all the way back home to North Carolina. I still have to break the motor in, but this car is already a dream to drive. I do lots of trackday's and autocrosses and I can't wait to see what this puppy can do!

I already have some plans in mind.

Here's a pic!

Very nice! I did the opposite drive once when I bought an RX-7. Took a bus down to VA and drove it back up to MA. Was a nice trip back, the bus ride down not-so-much

Nice to hear that you're going to track it... It has held up well for me after 4 track days, and counting...

Congrats.

I don't know what's special about that pic, but it somehow looks interesting.
