I honestly never thought i'd be back here again, never say never :bonk:.

Back in 2013 I bought a limited BRZ, i absolutely loved that car it went from SC to Turbo and many other modifications then i made the poor decision of trading in the brz for a new style WRX...long story short sold the WRX after 6 months and bought a Focus St...yes another mistake.

Finally i came to the realization that i wanted something more fancy.

I ditched Subaru and Ford and joined the German dark side.

I bought a 2014 Audi S4 (used)

Sold that and bought my first brand new Audi 2017 TTS after a year.

Sold that and bought a 2018 Audi RS3

Sold that and bought a 2017 Porsche 718 S (by far my favorite car of all times)

The plan was the keep the Porsche forever...however...life happened got the old lady pregnant...Get this bought the Porsche in May of 2019 she got pregnant the following week...needless to say i had to get rid of the Porsche for a family car, no back seat.

I enjoyed the Porsche for 6 months and bought a "family car" 2018 Audi S5 sportback.

Needles to say i was missing the Porsche and wanted a project car.

So here it is, bought a 2013 FR-S with 77K miles, in absolute mint conditions, it was owned by an older gentleman from day one, never modded and did all the maintenance at a Toyota dealership, clean carfax too, bought it for $11,500 which is a bit high but here in Oklahoma the market its not that great, plus the car is in excellent conditions, i don't mind rewarding the old man.

My plans are to SC with innovate, just because the S5 is already turbo charged, and i feel like the brz/frs engine benefits more from a SC, im not trying to make huge gains.

What else do you guys recommend? What has changed from 7 years ago?

Holy cow this is becoming common. There's another guy in another thread who did almost exactly the same thing!

lol dats me

There have been many over the years!

There sure have! They seem to usually involve domestics. Cheap horsepower. My FRS represented a twenty-year technology jump for me so I'm still constantly in awe of it's user-friendliness. Right now I can't imagine any reason I'd have for upgrading.

My favourite.

Yup! That was possibly the most memorable for me too.

The FRS/BRZ its just such an amazing car, Cant seem to stay way from it

Stay the hell out of car dealerships and off car lots!

Seriously, welcome back - :clap:

Welcome back!

Do I spot some ECS kit on the back of your old S4? Just bought a B8 S4 myself as a daily. Been looking at their valved exhaust + diffuser.

Anyway, have fun with the new ride!

Welcome back! All that has changed is that there are more limited editions.

Is this an oxymoron?
