FINALLY!! She is MINE!

I'm officially an FRS owner!!

This is the first manual transmission vehicle I've ever driven, so it took me about half an hour of painful stalls around the dealership parking lot to finally be confident enough to go on traffic. One of the employees at the dealership came out and gave me some pointers because I was stalling so much haha.

Thanks haha.
I had to wait extra 2 weeks to get this color, but the wait was well worth it!

I waited 2 weeks for my Whiteout.
I could have had the asphalt the day I went to the dealership, but I did not want to risk having color regret haha.

What factory options did you get?

I got... an engine block heater lol

Not really an option, but I did get the rust protection / paint coating / under coating. Planning to get the tint done on Tuesday.

Sooner than later, I am going to get a new set of wheels with wider tracks and 18". And eventually gonna go SC route later down the road!

Firestorm FTW. Ironically, it wasn't my first choice, but, it looks better in person than in pictures. That, and I enjoyed the test drive so much that I could not wait.
