Paperwork error
 
Almost bought an FR-S today, but then was told the dealership can't sell it yet because of issues with the paperwork. I'm in Canada and not sure if this affects just mine or all canadian dealers. Very strange....

:iono:

It's an ashphalt auto and I test drove it twice. I don't think my 350lb fat roomie will be able to fit in the seat as her butt is toooo big... oh well, won't have to worry about her driving it.. lol.. I'm not sure ashphalt would be my first choice of color, but I don't hate it either. The seats look really cheap though and the upgraded audio isn't the greatest either.... I can look past that... but it also doesn't have a block heater available yet... For Canada, the choice of tire is questionable too... Still, it's a hoot to drive and my 4Runner just eats too much gas...

A number of buyers in Ontario have been hearing the same thing, possibly some problem with the owner's manual. There are lots of notices required by the gov't within it, perhaps Scion forgot something. See the Canada sub-forum for more discussion about this.

For winter you'll definitely want four good snows.

What kind of cars would a fat 350lb person fit into? That will turn a hybrid car into a gas guzzler. Plus ruin your suspension.

It will ruin your P2W ratio too! :D

Buy an oil pan heater for 75 bucks - that's all VW has been using since 2000. You can stick it on yourself.

Set of winters will be 400 or so - the question will be the TPMS sensors, if you want a 2nd set or if you'll just ignore the light (but it might not let you turn off traction/stab if the light is on). TPMS sensors are almost 100 each as well and you still need a scan tool or something to switch them over.
