5 year old bmw or new scion frs?
 

What do you think?
GO for the prestige of a driving a bmw (330i or 335i or m3) or the sporty frs?


Which one would pick up more ladies haha???


Try not to give bias answers.

BMW WHAT? There are all kinds most of which are not all that cool!
You want an unbiased answer on THIS forum??????????????????

BIMMER all the way!

@sklimo, drop the mic here with advice.

AS SOMEONE WHO SURELY DOES NOT HAVE AN FRS, MY COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY UNBIASED ANSWER IS THAT THE FRS WOULD GET TONS OF POON, MUCH MORE POON THAN A BMW.

AGAIN, UNBIASED, CAUSE I DO NOT HAVE AN FRS. IGNORE SIGNATURE, THAT MEANS NOTHING.

Well which one is it? 330i? No. 335i? No, M3 wannabe. M3? Yes!


lol wut

After seeing family get violated with the cost of maintenance, go with the FRS and warranty.

More ladies...? Go for quality not quantity.
(More ladies will fit on a bus than either car)


As for the car, are you kidding me.
The BMW is "sporty", the FR-S is a sports car. Are you looking to impress yourself (FRS), or others (BMW) (wow, he must have money...a BMW)


More ladies will go for the BMW.

Buy an FRS, unless you want a "sporty" car.

You obviously only care about what other people think, so a BMW seems right up your alley.

don't know if this is a joke or to get responses but bmws are like noses, everyone has one. frs/brz is more unique. plus side it is difficult for a woman to exit the vehicle with a skirt on without showing _______.

Fixed it for you!

Fuck, go for the BMW. The threads that you contribute on these forums are cringeworthy and I'd like for that to NOT continue.

I'm just gonna throw the mic at him. Dafuq is this shit??

Bimmer picks up more p*ssy.... FRS will only attract males.

It's true. My peen is throbbing at the thought of another frs on the road.


No but real talk, so many qt3.14 grills be like "ey boi ur car is so kewl"

Most women, and for that matter a good amount of men, don't even know what an M3 is. If you're considering a BMW just for a status symbol and women, get the cheaper 3 series and take the money you saved for the repairs you're going to need. Last car was an E46 M3 and I'll never be buying another BMW again.

Loved the shameless plug in of build thread.

Tastefully done :clap:

if you wanna attract teenage dudes, go for the FRS

if you wanna attract gold diggers and expensive repairs, get the bmw

if you wanna be legit, buy a honda accord. Its faster than the frs, and more reliable than the bmw. Win win

no offense, but everyone and their mom has an frs at this point

Bimmer, hands down

Don't think there are THAT many! Other then some isolated hotspots (Vancouver , Mississauga) still very rare in Canada.

Since the total US cars sales for 2013 was 15.3 MILLON I think there are loads of other cars out there.

Now if you are talking "muscle" cars ya everybody and especially their mom has one!

"Sports" Segment sales numbers (Partial list)

Chevrolet Camaro 2013 (US): 80,567
Ford Mustang 2013 (US): 77,186
Scion FR-S 2013 (US): 18,327
Subaru BRZ 2013 (US): 8,587
Nissan 370Z 2013 (US): 6,561
Mazda MX-5 2013 (US): 5,780

if the original question was should I get a new alfa 4c I would go for the alfa. however there is no better value for the buck than the twins. I looked at bmws. audis etc but the twins don't look like a jetta.

Corolla.

True true...My reality is a little skewed in Socal, they are EVERYWHERE here haha.

I've considered an e90 328i. With sport suspension, it's a nice car. Pretty reliable too. Just don't get a 335i. Lemon land. 528i is nice too, but it's a big car. Never get a 3 or 5 series without sport suspension.

Lol that's my signature meng. So I can shamelessly plug my build thread erywhere.Attachment 89106

Around here I literally go days w/o seeing an FRS. Unless I peek in my garage.


I cant go 2 min w/o seeing a BMW.
and where is the BMW... just to the left of the Honda that's next to the Camry.


And what color is the BMW? black... every f'ing one.

LOL at picture, and now I see, its the signature from your phone so it looks liek part of the message.....

Touche Walls and Foundations, Touché indeed!! :clap::clap::clap::clap:

Warranty or no warranty is the real question.........

If you do not have either deep pockets or mechanical skills then you do not want to own a BMW or an Audi when it is out of warranty.

This is NOT an opinion. It is fact.

If you're not familiar with working on BMW's or don't have the expendable cash. I'd get the FRS. I was also in the same pickle, was about to pick up a used e92 m3 or 335. Then a buddy of mine told me how much the 50-60k tune-up costs (on his e46 m3) both to do at home and at the dealer. It's literally the price of a cheap commuter.

GOD I can't even imagine how many Mustangs you have there then! Every 3rd car here I think.

my car is a cock magnet

the beemers only got me crackheads

And here I am lol

Just had this discussion the other day with my friend.

Chicks don't care what kind of BMW it is so long as it says BMW.

Chicks don't know wtf a Scion is, let alone the spirit/story/reason that the FR-S is a "special" car lol.

the chicks that know the bmws are just as high maintenance as the cars..fwiw

I do not yet own an FRS (still considering it) however I have owned a couple BMW and I have driven the FRS a few times.

If all you care about is getting laid, get the BMW, any BMW.

Now if you care about actually driving experience it's a tougher choice. I would avoid the N54 engine like the plague (135, 335, 535 etc). I owned a 335i spent more time in the shop than on the road. I would probably also rule out the e90 M3, maybe an e46 if you can do most of the maintenance yourself.

Now the ones I would consider when comparing them with the FRS would be a 328 or a 128. Personally I find the N52 engine to be pretty much bullet proof especially compared to the N54. Personally I find the 328 to be a bit large and soft. I would go with a 128 6spd (the auto is garbage) sport package if possible. I think it would be a tough choice for me between that and the FRS if you can find a 128 6spd for a decent price.

But ultimately you need to drive them both and see what you prefer.

This is basically the golden rule when considering the purchase of a BMW.

My car before my BRZ was a 135i with mods.

I traded it in for my BRZ because the warranty had ended, it was nearing 60k miles, and I was just waiting for something bad to happen, at which time it would have cost thousands.

BMW gives the impression you have money. Chicks dig guys with money.

As an enthusiast, my BRZ is a lot more fun to drive and much cheaper to modify (and subsequently repair if needed) than my 135 was. Cheaper to own and maintain.

Warranty would be the determining factor for me if considering the BMW because ANYTHING that happens will cost thousands to fix on the Beemer..
