New FR-S girl owner!!!!
 
Hello guys!

So I bought my FR-S a few weeks ago and I simply love it!!!

I had the chance to test drive it @ Shannonville (ON) on June 16 with Scion Canada, and this is the reason why I finally make the choice to get one.

I was driving a Toyota Yaris for 6 years, doing track as soon as I could. Here is a picture of my old car:

I had a lot of fun with it, it is a very surprising car!

But, after I my day at Shannonville, I decided to change the Yaris for the FR-S. So, we started to part out the Yaris :brokenheart:

I was quite sad, but forget it as soon as I sat my ass in my new toy!! :happyanim:

I'm still doing track with the FR-S, what an amazing track car it is!!!

I'll keep you posted with my updates and track pictures!!!

Cheers!

Congrats and welcome! What do you have in mind for mods? Did you keep the pink RPF1's?

Congrats - and excellent color choice as well ;)

Thank you!!!

No, I couldn't keep the RPF1, they were 4X100 in 15" :(

Too bad, I would have love to have them on the FR-S!!

As for the mods, I will change the suspension (looking for coilovers) and wheels+tires (something like RE11 or RS3, I had RE11 on the Yaris, great tires!!). I'll maybe change the CAI.....nothing more, I'll keep money for the track :)

Believe it or not... I was actually debating going for a Yaris over the FR-S this time around. I was attracted by its simplicity, lightness, build quality, and lower price...

... But then I was suddenly more attracted by a well-engineered, true sports car developed straight from the manufacturer (FR-S). :D That Yaris can be a lot of fun though, I'm sure of it...

Congrats on the new car!

Welcome to the forum. There are some great resources on here for are cars. For example check out Racecomp's write up on our stock struts (under their spring thread).
