FR-S Test drive..well, sort of...

For like 4 feet before it stalled

The salesmen were standing in a line watching, how embarrassing. Whatever, I got a ride in it at least, awesome car! They are getting a couple autos in this weekend so I will head back and try that out.

I guess I need a bit of a refresher before I buy a manual car!

4 feet wasn't enough to sell you on the car?

Not a bad hobby. I've done that myself a few times.

Yea the headlights on the us one is my only problem with the car but I guarantee there will be aftermarket headlights that look as good, if not better than the jp lights

And to the op, I'm not the best at manual either but I still need a lot to work on before I get mine (I can still tend to forget the clutch exists when I'm stopping if it's been a while)

Moto-P was thinking $3200 for a proper conversion. F' that indeed. Let's all pray for HID's/LED's next year. Oh and a sound economy so we can continue to buy and drive. :P
