I used to own a tC as well. The tC forum I used to be on is slowly dying and hardly any people on there.

Hi everybody I'm new to the forums, my name is Mao but everybody calls me Panda. Anyways I bought a '14 Frs in whiteout about 2 weeks ago and finally broken in the motor. The funny part is the dealership is near my house and I didn't have a car at the time so i rode on my bmx to the dealership and they just looked at me with that "umm..wtf?" kinda look and was even more surprised I had awesome credit and threw down 3k. I was like "I want the white one!!" lol

actually I did research ahead of time and learned the FR-S can fit 4 full sized wheels with seats folded down so.....I carefully put the bmx in the back its only 20 inch bike so it fitted nicely and I drove off hahaha

the sales people were still stumped by how odd I was oh and they were surprised I was still sitting in the car at the dealership lot for a few hours cuz the salesman asked me if everything is ok with the car since I was still there and I said everything is fine just reading the owners manual.

he was shocked since nobody ever reads those books they just drive off lol

Figure this should be my first post. I've had my '13 6MT Hot Lava FR-S for about six months now. Been lurking on these forums for even longer than that researching the car before I purchased it last year. Stock right now, except for drop in filter, but plan on purchasing cat-back, front pipe, and OFT this week, and either header or springs (or probably both) next month. Anyway, just figured I would introduce myself since I finally decided to join the forums. Thanks for having me!

WELCOME to the forum and CONGRATULATIONS on your new car ....

Yep, you can't always judge a driver by the vehicle they drive. When I pull up, most of the women looook and get all excited ..... till I open my door, catch my suspenders on the seat belt guide and fall out of my car......

Have a great driving experience!
