MY GF's FRS confirmed for last week of May or first week of June
 
My girl friend was called by by the sales manager to confirm that her red manual FRS is going to be in last week of May or first week of June. We are going down on friday to ad $2k more to our $500 down. I just hope my credit rating is still decent. :)

You bought your GF a FRS? How nice of you!

In my years experience of spectating marriage and relationships ive learned to. A: Never Share a bank account/or credit B: Never trust a broad, no matter how much she tells you she "loves you" ... Sorry for my harsh words of reality bro, all in all though congrats! What color?! :D

Sport-Tech 04-17-2012 10:38 PM

Option list deserves its own thread. I thought first aid kit was standard for NA. Missing: cargo net please.

Not a very impressive list compared to what Subaru is doing.

Droopy 04-17-2012 10:39 PM

so this pretty much says right at the begining of June for the public release, thats when they are starting to advertise(psh like this car needs advertising)

clayrush 04-17-2012 10:42 PM

LOL RED
I am not 2 wiped considering the list of cars I have. I think that I am lucky that I am with a woman who does not want a 2005 6 cylinder mustang, and is not going for an auto. And when your first date is at a American Le Mans race and she threatened to leave me if I did not supercharge my Celica, I would tend to say I have a keeper. :wub:

This is interesting, I hope the 12 city tour passes by or close to miami.

and for those of us that were waiting for the superbowl ad, we had a 4 month wait lol.

Rabble 04-17-2012 10:46 PM

4/24 configuration goes live on scion.com.

vvvv Me too, I've got to make sure I'm still at the top of the list. I signed up rather early.

Droopy 04-17-2012 10:51 PM

$1300 in special service tools???

Edit: Idiot me is says at the top that the car goes on sale on june 1st

hmm......its time to seriously bug my dealer

Koomoo 04-17-2012 11:12 PM

my fault i didn't open new thread... just saw that new thread about my GF getting a new FR-S.... but anyways no more free first aid kit lol.... thought it was pose to come standard...


the 12-city tour does looks exciting.... never seen 1 in person, only on pics and what the forums provide.... and i know at least half or more on here haven't seen one.... so i would contact the dealer ask more about this

csaba 04-17-2012 11:14 PM

oil change at 7500 miles?
And its comes with synthetic oil that's a 21 century idea!
I'm happy about that ,I was gonna change to synthetic anyway after like 1000 miles brake in and I change oil at 3000 regardless what manual says, plus like two times before reach 1000 miles brake in
I know its a overkill but I do it anyway...

Thanks for the post to OP!

clayrush 04-17-2012 11:23 PM

I wonder how much the Five Axis kit is going to cost, or if it will be out when the car comes in.

poormans_LFA 04-17-2012 11:24 PM

Annnnd point taken, i humbly withdraw my statement.

I'm guessing the service tools are the cost the dealer will have to pay for all the FRS specific tools to be able to service customer's cars

But is she attractive? If so, then I'll retract my previous statement.

Oh I'd I watch out about her threaten to leave you. Women do that a lot.

Do me a favor clay? Add this on ur title post acc and upcoming events with scion FRS thanxs don't feel like starting new thread thanxs :threadjacked:

Xdragonxb0i 04-18-2012 12:11 PM

is the dealer gonna install a paint protection film? is that like a clear bra? might be worth getting it done at the dealer vs a body shop

I can tell you that at least the red one we saw at the 1st86 event had the film on it. It's basically a clear bra. Had a Scion logo on the corner (probably about a half inch in size) that I first thought was a paint bubble. It covered the front bumper and wrapped around to the wheel wells. there was a separate one that ran about two feet onto the hood.

Only problem with it I saw (and this is probably common to all of them) dust gathered at the edge of the one on the hood making it stand out a bit. Once I saw it, it was hard to not see it.

With me getting the black, I dont care about that, it will make that pretty black paint last longer (keep from having swirls and such)

Xdragonxb0i 04-18-2012 12:25 PM

Thanx, i just wanted to comment about it since there are a group of people on ft86club wanting the clear bras.

for me i rather spend that mone (800+) for a set of rims or suspension

I can confirm this as well. My old Service manager along with sales management said they will be getting first shipment of FR-S's at the end of May. And the 5Axis kit WILL be a day 1 option. But they haven't heard a thing on the TRD kits.

Time to put the rest of my payment down :thumbup:

That is sick. It would be sweet to roll outta the dealership in a kitted car, assuming you could add the wheels and TRD lowering springs right off the bat, too.

IceCreamMan 04-18-2012 01:40 PM

I just got some sweet news from my dealer. He also says last week of may, first week of june at the latest that the cars should be arriving on the lot. I inquired about what my place on the list was (and this was the best part) and he told me that I was second!!! Only guy ahead of me is one of the 1st 86ers!! I'm soooooo stoked! I never inquired as to my place on the list when I put the deposit down (stupid me I know) but I'm so happy to have found this out!! ~5-6 weeks and counting! I'm so excited!!!!!

I know a lot of the guys that at the dealer i did work there for a while. But from what the parts guys have said they have NO time line when they would start seeing TRD parts come in. But IDK if that just with my dealer?

That's awesome Icecreamman i have no idea where im at on the list.

IceCreamMan 04-18-2012 02:05 PM

When I went to the dealer three weeks ago, I was chatting up the salesman that said I could absolutely put down a deposit, just just had to get the sales manager to ok it, and the manager was trying to talk me out of leaving a deposit.... Glad I didn't listen to him!

Which dealership? You in SF, East, South, or outside of the immediate bay? I'm gonna hit up mine today and see if they have any updates.

Me think that very soon we'll have a thread 'My GF left me and took away my FR-S :cry:'

:)

Turbowned 04-18-2012 03:10 PM

You have official approval from the random dudes on the internet, lol

She sounds like a keeper, though! My current g/f drives a manual Impreza Outback, and she loves my cars. She wants to come autocrossing soon, and hopefully I can talk her into a sportier car someday - she likes the Mini Cooper.

S2kphile 04-18-2012 03:30 PM

:coolpics: Works for me! :thumbup:

:respekt: for posting photos.

Hopefully she'll let you drive her FRS once she gets it.:D

Car's gonna to be in my name so u will have no crying from me! She is just going to be on my loan so we can try for the student rebate.

The dealer is in Vallejo ca.

And yes I get to drive the car. But I have plenty of other cars to keep me having fun.
The frs is going to be an upgrade for her from a Cali edition VW Jetta 170Hp
I will try to have as little influence on what she does to it as I can, but I dont think pink neon lights are gonna look to good on a red car, so I may try to keep her from doing that.
