I would spend 1k tops on headlights. Kudos to him that he was able to buy them

I just noticed today how well the five axis spoiler flows with the body line

Had the 10 series not been available... I would have spent the 2 grand on the headlights... I hate halogen headlights with a passion...

Personally, props to the people who are able to acquire the 10 series parts. I had an asphalt fr-s before I traded it for the 10 series. We are all GT86's but I like knowing that only 2500 of these were built and I'm one of them. Gives me a deeper connection to other 10 series FR-S owners.

To each their own. That's just my thought on the situation. Take it or leave it.

Got mine today... Told him I did not want a 900.00 radio that would only work with iphone and not get sirius and they said ok. When I got in the car today it had the red/black seats, the dash did not light up and it had the damn bespoke. I thought it was a mistake, but....
found the #/2500 and they did not charge me for the bspoke. In return I felt it only fair to get the extended warranty for 1200.00
Questions...
1 seatbelts? what is special about them. are they plastic for the reg frs???
2. seats? i thought 10 series were all black. the instrument pannel is all red so it looks good, but the blue knob looks totally out of place.
3. side boards... its just a metal strip which matches my peddles, i dont have the glowing scion as I have seen in a few pictures.
4. I can just look this one up in the book, but does this sucker not lock on own when key is far away? i left key a good distance away and it was still open. if that is case, i hate that it does not honk when you hit lock twice to let ya know.

i do love it thou. such a sexi view driving

1) The seatbelts are silver instead of black
2) Seats are the same as stock FR-S... The blue knob matches the exrerior badges... I think... I don't have one so I can't compare.
3) Light up scion side boards are not part of the FR-S 10 series, I think it's only for the iQ, tC, and xD
4) No, you need to touch the groves on the door handle and it'll close...

thanks man.. Yea i know they match that, i just swore I read where the seats were just black. I live in AUburn so wanted a blue or orange FRS. THought the red seats looked bad in either of those colors so was excited to hear about this 10 series. I am happy with it for the silver, just had no idea. and that sucks about the locking. I have to play with that. But... other then that, I am so happy with the car. No buyers remorse here. And insurance was much cheaper then I would have thought. no change from my 2o1o focus

Your car doesn't give a single "beep" confirmation when you press the door handle for arming and double beep for disarming?

The keyless entry system on my BRZ works just like my old Mitsubishi Outlander SUV so I guess I'm already used to using a similar system but I personally find that the beep confirmations are much more discreet than a loud honking horn. I also am spoiled not having to reach in to my pocket every time to press a button for locking/unlocking, just touch the door handle and I'm good. It also makes locking my keys inside the car virtually non-existent.

The only problem I found with my Mitsubishi key FOB (not sure how strong the Subaru's key FOB is as I've only my BRZ for a little while) but if I had my phone in my pocket sometimes the car couldn't find the key FOB and either wouldn't lock/unlock or start the car. No biggy, just a shift of the pocket. Electronic interference I'm guessing.

Check that your spare key fob is NOT in the car, or within range.

Also, check to see if your alarm is activated. Some dealers seem to be activating them, but many came deactivated.
