Hey gang, good to finally see that somebody in Memphis has an FR-S! I almost never see any around, and I drive from Collierville to downtown every day.

Waiting on a red '14 M/T to come in. Been waiting too long, tell me they're not seeing one in their allotment yet (Wolfchase). But I've been buying cars from them for years, so I'll hang on.

Got a garage full of parts for it when it does come in. Klutch SL14 wheels just arrived today. Nice! 18x8.5/9.5. Will go with Sportlines.

Have Sirius in my Celica and I'll want to move it over to the GT86 . Was installed by a place in Bartlett but hell, that was in 2006 and they ain't there anymore. If y'all were going to get someone to do satellite installation for you...where would you recommend?

Thanks for any info, and looking forward to meeting up with some of you WHEN I ACTUALLY GET A CAR!!!!! I'll be the old SOB in the red FR-S! I actually see a white one in the Collierville Kroger parking lot quite often, but rarely see one on the street. Gotta change that!

Thanks for the response! Yeah, I saw the red one, it's a 13, no foglights, got the scion bumper sticker. I want to order a manual with fogs, and nothing else. I don't want to pay for stuff I'll have to toss...I've got a complete TRD body kit waiting on a car, along with the TRD quadtip exhaust, Sportlines, TRD intake. My wife is thrilled with all the boxes in the garage... .

Shit you gonna be TRD'd out. Haha and my car came with that gay ass bumper sticker too but it peeled right off no problem. I got the base line for the exact reason you just said. I've already replaced half the base line stuff anyway.

No recommendations from anybody for a local audio installer to do my Sirius. I don't think it's something I want to attempt...

Got one!

WooHoo! Finally got my 14 Firestorm FRS this past weekend from Wolfchase. They had to drive it from a dealer in Cleveland Tenn (outside Chattanooga) so it had 350 miles on it when I got it...but that's ok...I got it. Foglights and a spoiler were already on it. Wanted the foglights, but already have the TRD JDM spoiler ready to paint and install. So....anybody looking to pick up a brand new red stock FRS spoiler that I'll be taking off soon?

Waiting on the remainder of the TRD body panels to get them painted and installed. Too many things to do and not enough time. Work sure gets in the way of having fun, you know!

Having Don's Upholstery put in a leather interior with this design from Roadwire... it's a lot cheaper than having the dealer do it.

See y'all on the street!

Hey, ran into you today on poplar. Nice looking frs!! How much did it cost to get your car lowered at foreign and were you happy with their work. Also did you keep the stock struts on your car? My name is Steve by the way, you should make it out to the cars and coffee event that is held once a month at the gtown firestone on every 4th sat of the month

Hey, thanks Steve! Glad to meet you. Hardly ever see any twins out there, so it was wild to run beside you in traffic. Was going to post something to say HI...but you beat me to it! Got my car work done at Tracey's Foreign Car Service downtown on Monroe. Been using them for about 30 years for all my cars. Can't break out a price on just the lowering work because I got the wheels and tires and moved TPMS from my stock tires to the new ones, alignment, all that work done. I don't think it was cheap, but I'm completely happy with what they did. Kept my stock struts.

Had springs put on my celica gts years ago at Xtreme out in Bartlett, they did a good job too and I don't remember it being expensive. Kept stock struts on it, have 250,000 miles on the celica and have only replaced the struts once!

Just got my seats finished Friday, super happy with them. Hard to take photos of the interior thought. I'm Chris, glad to know about the cars and coffee, sounds like something I'd like to attend. What time?

Here's a few photos I shot yesterday....
