With the additional $4k-$6k you can get a better lip kit painted, rims, headlights, or save it for future mod. You don't HAVE to dump 10k in a year. It can be a total of 3-5 years and surely you will have a better looking car than the RS 1.0 series.


All I'm saying is IMO I would rather self mod a car rather than buying a packaged car knowing I will mod it later in the future. Also what are the chances of someone owning a FRS/BRZ not modifying it?
You are not going to find a clean title FRS with low mileage for 13k, I promise.

Also, your math is way off.

Complete paint job - 6k minimum
OEM 86 headlights - 1k
OEM push-start/climate control - 1k
Seats - 800
TRD wheel - 200

Roughly 9k, and that's being conservative and not counting exhaust, or lip kits.

If you want a yellow 86, it would be silly not to buy a clean RS 1.0 if you can find one. If you don't like the yellow I wouldn't recommend buying the car.
