Hey,

I walked into the dealership two days ago to discuss pricing on the FR-S I had test driven last week. Ended up trading my 06 MINI Cooper S for a 6MT Whiteout FR-S. I miss my old car (I had her for 6 years, and had probably $20k in parts in the car overall), but I love my new Scion. I get so many looks and "nice car!" that it more than makes up for the loss of the mini. Looking forward to modding and tuning again, but this time with a more promising car. There's already so much out there, not sure where to start!

Ben

Hey guys! My name is Keri & I'm new here to the forum.

When I heard about the FR-S I knew that I needed the car. I had to have it. So my fiance (chris@phastek) and I went to look at the car and see what it was really like. I fell in love with it!

Not but a few months later we got the car! (: yay!

I came on the forum to see what I can learn, hopefully a lot. I plan to stay around awhile and see what's happening.

Welcome to the forum! I'm sure you will find that the community here is more mature than the average tuner forum.

Driving a white 03 Sentra Spec V... My brother had to buy the Fiat Abarth and now I'm jealous. I like the FR-S a bit more than the BRZ. I'm in between the asphalt and the whiteout, definitely manual trans.

Hoping to order mine or get lucky with a price drop on a used ride sooner than later.

Talking Newbie.

Just placed a downpayment for my 'high spec' Toyota 86 in Thailand. Have a bit of an issue with the spoiler, and wish to replace it. Tried creating a thread for this, but I wasn't allowed. Anyone know how I go about this? Looking forward to frequent this site as an owner of this car.

Im new to this club/forum...purchased my FR-S Saturday the 3rd of November 2012. Was originally going to get a 2013 Ford Mustang GT but was sold on this car when I saw it in person and drove it. All I can say is WOW!!!! Car is so much fun to drive.....Short on the horsepower that the Mustang puts out (425), however it makes up for it in handling and driving dynamics. This car is freakin sweet and I saved about $6000.00 as opposed to buying the Mustang.....
