Talking Congrats to: Red FR-S Dude!

I don't know his name, but he approached me while I was at the mall a few days back... He had asked me how I liked my FR-S, and he had told me that he had placed his order at another local dealer and that it was going to be a long wait for him...

I told him to check out the dealer which I ordered my FR-S from since they are a higher-volume dealer, and that there may be a better chance of allocating his exact FR-S...

He just PM'd me notifying me that he contacted my dealer the day after he ran into me... Lucky him, they found one coming in the very next day (exact color & transmission)!

He's picking up his FR-S as we speak now... And he's planning to drop by with it at the Dallas Cars & Coffee tomorrow, I think.

Anyway... I don't know your name (yet)... I hope you will chime in and introduce yourself after you get a chance (don't forget to post pics of your new FR-S too).

Good luck with the new car... Have fun, but be safe! :happy0180:
Sonny

Thank you. My name is Alex and I live in Plano and work at Stonebriar mall in Frisco. I have a red AT and I love it. Here is a picture of it at the dealership with my father looking at it. He still can't believe this car was made by Toyota

Oooh, you're already taking better care of your car than me... I had my first oil change at the 7k mark.
