FRS First Test Drive Event Pics

Here are the pictures i managed to take at the event in Fort mill sc. Had a great time and it only made we want the car even more! Some would say love at first sight I would review the car but honestly i feel like all the other positive reviews out there.... I never thought about the 200hp for a second i was focused on the fun of driving and the tight low well balanced feel. That and the amazing snugness of the seats and the perfect lines of the exterior and the interior. I addicted to the car....and i guess admitting it is the first step ENJOY!

What company's cars were these? Did they have any engine mods?

No engine mods, just the TRD exhaust. Even the intake was stock. There is plenty of room for mods though, I was surprised. Everything has easy access it appears, from the alternator, to the 02 sensor.

@ichitaka05 - thank you!
@Guff - just Yokohama tires, Enki rims, TRD springs, TRD exhaust , but honestly even that seemed very nice, and just enough.

I just wish we could of had more room to open them up. the course was tight and even though i managed to get a bit of sideways motion I just could get her open. I will have one. I must

Even with springs it still has too much wheel gap.

i agree, I will be going with a coil over setup to get a bit more of a flush look. Nothing too crazy but less wheel gap then the spring setups pictured.
