The make is not a requirement in any state I know. The most you could really do with that is impeach the officer's testimony. But no one will buy that.

Anyone knw of a positive lock kit for this car? Not sure if thats what u call it but a kit that can make the wheels turn more for stronger drift angles. Im surprised the market isnt flooded with them. It should be a major part of its aftermarket parts.

All my TT&L and insurance paperwork says Toyota Scion FR-S. As a matter of fact my insurance agent corrected me after giving her my vin, she said that vehicle is a Toyota not a Scion. I was smiling like a crackhead that just became BFF with Tyrone Biggums! Lol

Look at your registration. It says Toyota too...
