Long time lurker new FR-S owner
 
Hi guys I just wanna introduce myself I'm Anthony I'm 25 and from Arizona, I just bought my new 2014 FR-S Monogram edition this past Sunday and I'm in love lol. I've had 2 1st gen TC's 1 stock and the other turbo'ed, so I'm not new to Scion brand. I plan on keeping this one stock for a while because of the warranty though. So I've been reading around this forum for about a year now, and made my account when I got promoted at my job back in February because I knew I could afford the car then. Well I happy to be able to post on the forum now and be an owner it's an amazing car.

Welcome my friend! Make sure you ask and look for everything you need. This forum is like your second owner's manual for this car!

Thanks and yea I'm sure the mod bug will hit me, but for now I'm just happy to have the car.

JoeHK 06-22-2014 07:17 AM

As long as you enjoy it ;)
It's a great car stock & it has a lot of potential & options in case you want to mod, so you're good either way you go :D

Welcome to the forum. As you wait to start modding you might want to consider some paint protection while your vehicle's paint is still in great shape. Opti-Coat has worked great for me and many others on this forum. Have had my car 4 months and have yet to see any swirls in the paint. You might also want to consider a clear bra which will help to minimize paint chips.
