I must say that is pretty cool

I think the owner was on this site early on. Several of the first FR-S owners were.

I ordered mine the day they went on sale in 2012 and took delivery around June 8, 2012 making mine one of the first delivered in Canada.

I have the same mileage, plus an HKS blower, Ohlin's, brakes, wheels tires, etc. Still probably worth less than that one

His antenna is not stock.

It has spent its entire life in California. Meaning it definitely had the recall done :'( Poor thing.

I'd still buy it if I didn't have my own, it'd be one of the greatest honors.

which recall?

Valve spring ....

I passed on that service as did many people..

I bought my 2016 used a while back and it was likely done too

I wonder what Five Axis Designs had to do with it. I almost bought their Scion tC gen 1 concept after they were getting rid of it. Troy has an awesome company. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...79bd467f02.jpg

The second concept had a 5:AD body kit on it iirc.

Still looks good!

The 2016s didn't have the valve spring recall.

:)

Looks just like mine, except mine is in better shape - except for the big dent in the rear bumper.

:iono:

isn't the FT1 basically the Supra?

looking at articles and videos

I'd rather have the *last* one!

Yeah that was an error, corrected. It was the Scion FR-S Sports Coupe Concept at the 2011 New York Auto Show just prior to going on sale and was the third concept released. It encorperated the same lines as the 5:AD body kit. It is not uncommon to dumb down a concept for production, but the body kit allowed you to bring your car closer to concept.

Yes, that should be @Pekingduck. Here's his build thread...

and here's the delivery thread...

If I recall correctly, he was gifted a Five Axis Design ducktail at delivery. Some of the dealerships made a big deal of the 1st 86 group deliveries, and some barely acted like they cared you had bought the car from them.

ducktail?

Rear spoiler, although looking at his build he has the Carsmo Rear Spoiler on it, but did had the 5Axis Aero Kit, so not really sure.

Curious where it will end up.

Yup that mine. I selling in part due to my recent purchase of the m3 and not getting the satisfaction that I want out of the car anymore. Yes I got the 5axis kit, change the rear spoiler, etc. I had a option of the rocket bunny but wouldn’t have been able to revert back to stock. I enjoy the time with the car and I hope it find a good home.

So wouldn't that make it a............Peking-Ducktail spoiler?...........


..........(crickets chirping).....

..........This mic on?

I was at Longo Scion/Toyota when he took ownership.I was #10 on the waiting list at Longo Scion and I was invited to the event for the first 86 at the Longo dealership. Good times!

I was hoping to sell my car to someone that would had appreciated my car but the deal fell through. I will just end up selling it to big online retailer.

I say list it again. Obviously there's some people out there that still want it.

Wow yeah I figured it would go for like $40k-$50k. Although I guess first sold in the U.S. isn't the same as first ever made or something. (Or owned by Christopher Walken, etc...)

Or maybe they took the owner's manual out of the plastic... (har har)

Unlikely, its a 10 year old used car with a little bit of an interesting history. It might sell for that 50 years from now, but not when there are so many of them available in the market.

I doubt even VIN 0001 would sell for $50K today, well unless it was owned by Christopher Walken.

It would need more cowbell.

So, it lost 31% of its value from the original MSRP. Not that bad for a '13 model car.

It fell pretty much in line with the KBB private sale price for a 2013 in CA with the mileage from the OP.

What if it had belonged to John Voight?

Not sure.

You would have e to ask George Kostanza.
