New guy with his new FR-S
hey all
 new guy from alabama here! ever since the US release i've been wanting to grab one but didn't want to spend 24k just yet, nor did i want to get rid of any of my cars. finally caved 3 days ago and traded in my 06 evo 9 mr se for a PW fr-s  now sure, some of you may be thinking, "wtf is wrong with this guy..." lol, but it was time. the evo was nothing but trouble for me and after i hit 116k on it i started losing interest in modifying it any further. had a few things done... nothing crazy but enough to get the good ol' butterflies in the stomach feeling. however, i think i made a great decision. still figuring out plans for my new frs but i'll spend some time on that one. anyways... happy to be part of the community. looking forward to some great discussions and watching the whole development of the aftermarket support for this car unfold. oh yeah, here's a pic:
