ReeceR34's 2014 FR-S
 

Hello all,

Proud new owner of a 2014 Scion FR-S.

Background: Located in St. Petersburg, FL

Have been a car enthusiast my whole life, I was that windows movie maker kid making supra compilations at age 10.

Had a few 240sx's one in particular I modded while in highschool and sold before entering college. (see pictures below)

After graduating last year the search was on to finally get back into a fun daily driver and reward myself for paying all cash for school while holding down a career debt free.

About two weeks ago I finally purchased my 2014 Whiteout Scion FR-S from a dealer on the east coast of FL.

The car did have some not so tasteful light mods such as a clear bra on the front half of the car and blue tint on the headlights and tails along with blue LED turn sigs.

I negotiated the removal of the bra and tint and my signature contingent on the result.

Well upon the result I discovered the bra was hiding some pretty nasty scratches on the hood.

I then walked from the car and made the 3 1/2 hour journey home FR-Sless and upset.

After inquiring with a local reputable body shop about a hood repaint I haggled the price off the OTD sale price and they accepted.

In turn I walked away with a 1 owner Florida car with 14,300 miles on it for $15,000. It took weeks of offering slightly above trade in value and I'm happy with my margin now.

Less than a week of ownership and the mods have begun:
