well here, lemme help you out.

RS 1.0 - Stock $19 - $21k w/headlights, seats etc..
Base Frs - roughly $13k - $16k (depends on where you buy)


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?
