It's been a year since I rescued and restored my 2015 FRS I purchased her from the Insurance Auction at price I couldn't resist. Since I've been lusting after these cars for quite a while ideally wanted a MT but have grown and appreciated that Toyota did there homework on this AT.

I would never imagined that I would enjoy and appreciate this car so much having driven owned many MT cars from Celica's, 3 Gen Supra, Civic Si. Countless road trips I've taken her to she was at 26K now at 47K driven daily she's indeed a car that's truly meant to be daily driven not a garage queen.

Here's photos of her when I first rescued her. The pictures may look scary but upon close examine this car is one strong sob that took it well, Toyota/Subaru did a excellent job constructing the front end of this car and they knew that restorers and body people are going to be working on this car

My goal is to have a rock solid DD that's simple and reliable with RWD and pass on to my children so I kept the car simple, subtle without attracting the wrong attention. Hopefully I can impart and share knowledge not to be afraid of rescuing these Twins off the auction but take the time to restore it properly.
