Spotted an FR-S on my way to work - Scion FR-S Forum | Subaru BRZ Forum | Toyota 86 GT 86 Forum | AS1 Forum

OK. I know we've seen hundreds if not thousands of pictures of the FR-S already and this may not be as exciting to you guys as it was for me (I still never seen the FR-S or BRZ in person). While on my way to work about 15 minutes ago, I spotted a black FR-S cruising down highway101 at ~75-85mph. I had trouble keeping up with him in my poor old camry but I managed to snap a bunch of pictures of it before my exit. I'll post up the best of the bunch I have. Sorry I couldn't drive fast enough to get ahead of it for a front shot.

Excuse the bad quality. Taken with my Droid X.

Nice. Up near SF? I know some cars are starting to hit the area, the two dealers I have deposits with have told me that they should have a car for me within 2 weeks.

Yeah right next to SFO. Glad to hear they are coming in soon! I wonder if that's a corporate car or a private owner's.

My guess is a floor model that they'll have on display at a dealer. The dealer and crew are likely taking it for a spin to see what it's all about.

Dam nice...as much as I like to get this car but typically I don't like to be in debt so I'm negotiating for a fellow's RSX-S on here...he is still hesitating about my offer but if I can't get the RSX, for sure FRS will be the one....
