Next time, please edit your post so it's not so hard to read... had to read, then reread because it was very hard to understand.

As for aftermarket exhausts... there are many on the forum, it depends on what you want your car to sound.

As of 9/15/2012, Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche are all sissies for having state of the art automatics :happy0180:

Take it easy guys.... this guy is just excited to that he traded up into a great car.

Lolz! I just checked 'Stokes Brown Toyota's' Inventory and your Ashphalt FRS MT is still there. I'd definitely go check them out if I was closer to buying one but until then I'm gonna hang back and see how things go first. I'm probably just gonna wait for the 2014's since they'll probably be coming out in my purchasing window.

**EDIT** - HOLY CRAP STOKES BROWN is hella far from where I live. How long was the drive for you to get down there? I'm in Statesville about an hour north of you.

But but, the Hyundai Genesis coupe is pretty much a RWD Evo right!?!?!? Pretty much capable of 500hp out of the box! Sounds like a down grade. :bellyroll:

Grats on the new FRS. Can't wait till I finally pull the trigger on mine.

Genesis is like a korean version of 370z or mustang.

Good choice.
And you sound very excited :)

The 4 cylinder turbo in the Gen Coupe is basically a 4B1 that was tailored to Hyundai's specs, so technically it is a RWD Evo.

Lol genesis haters, I've seen evo turbo swaps like it was nothing! 500hp genesis are out there! Mostly sleepers
