SOLD!!! FS: 2013 FR-S >>> A very early FR-S

$13,800
116,000 Miles
Located in Minnesota
Daily drive since new, except since January when I got a new car

Well maintained and in good condition. This is a very fun car to drive! It is quite quick, the power delivery is smoother and more direct than stock due to better control of the driveline. The shifter is absolutely sublime with the new bushings and springs. Brakes are so good they are not even trying and still stop very quickly on the street. You must really drive the car to appreciate how well sorted it actually is! Please see photos: If you are looking for a perfect pretty car this is not the one unless you want to pay for body work after you purchase the car. It looks very impressive, but detail perfectionists will not like it.

This is a very early model, purchased 2 or 3 days before the official release date of June 1, 2012.

New Parts:
New brake rotors and calipers
New clutch, flywheel, throw-out bearing, shift fork, shifter bushings, shifter springs (aftermarket)
