phm14 Toyobaru 86 aka Candy O

Man, it's been a good day. The hunt for my firestorm red 86 has come to a successful conclusion, and Candy O is resting peacefully in my man cave. I had the car on order for over 2 months, and late last week I started tracking dealer ads online. I found over 30 red 6MT cars by the the weekend, not one of them in Texas. Monday I printed a list of Scion dealers within 250 miles of Houston, and started calling. 41 calls later, I found my car at Allstar Scion in Alexandria LA, and when I asked, they said they would deliver the car to my house at no charge. My salesman, David Cook, along with one of their service guys showed up with the car on time, and with a full tank this morning. Service does still exist, even if you have to go to a small town dealer to get it. This FRS will se a mild street/track build. I'll use this thread to post up info on the mods I plan for the car, which will see some track time. I'll cover test fitting the set of Enkei PF01s I have here 1st, and go from there.
