At the time, I was kind of excited about having a car with a screamin' color (the only other car I've ever had that wasn't one of your standard basic car colors was a flame orange Fiat Spider back in the 80s), but the one I ended up buying had less miles, was in better shape, and was the same price AND "Toyota Certified" from a dealership. As usual, my pragmatism won out over color choice, but yeah, I was a little bummed at first. Even w/ the color-that-shall-blend-with-all-others, I figured the body shape would still catch some glances here and there, but so far nothing. They're pretty rare around here, too; I've only seen one other in the area. Doesn't really matter either way, although I'm suprised that more people aren't intrigued by it just because of the body shape. Who knows. Maybe Syracuse is more of a muscle car town.

When I bought mine they wanted to charge me full rice for all the extras they had put on it. I said no way and started to walk away. They said they had a white one for base price and I said no way and walked faster. They gave in. The orange was the first FRS I had ever seen in person and the colour just seemed so right for it that I was ruined for any other.
