It's here! My FRS is here !
 
Got it last night at 9 pm

Drove it for a good 3 hours rofl. Love this car. LOVING the feel of manual.

I've gotten so many thumbs ups and questions about it already :P

Wow, that silver looks super sharp in the dark. Congrat's!

Highly recommend replacing the shift knob. If you think you like the feel of shifter now, just wait. :D

Completely new to this sort of thing! I wouldn't mind looking into changing the knob. Any recommendations?

Don't worry, it's easy as literally unscrewing it (counterclockwise) with your hand. Then your new one, you just screw back on the same way and tighten it down with your hand.

As for recommendations, depends on the look/shape you want. Flossy and BLOX have some cool ones. TRD makes one but you'll pay a lot for it. Mine is from WC Lathewerks and is custom made stainless steel. Not cheap, but damn is it nice.

Something like this would be so cool :

Congrats! I called the dealership today and they haven't gotten their allocations in yet, so I have no idea when I'll be getting mine. I want it in Whiteout and that seems to be an extra hassle. We'll see what they say after the weekend.

Looking good. Congrats!

Flossy grip tape shorty all the way!

I LOVE mine!

Oh... and congrats BTW, the silver looks great! Glad to see there's another one on the road.

Congrats! That silver does look pretty hot man. I guess I should post some pictures of mine up here.
