I'm already on my way to modding the car. I have previously plasti dipped whole cars and i had a few extra gallons, so I desides to spray it and atleast protect the car for the New England winter.

Let me know what you think.








Thanks

What a dramatic change. Does it come off when the Winter is done? Looks nice; just totally different. Welcome to the Forum also.

Hey everyone,
I bought a 2013 FR-S last Friday. My background has mainly been with S13 240's, but I have jumped ship to the scion. I'm in the coastal NC area. I haven't been in the import scene for awhile and am a fairly recent transplant to NC. I'm mainly looking to see if there are any clubs or meet and greets in the area. I joined here mostly for info on the car. In a few months I might consider a supercharger and some wheels. Seem to be some good discussions on here about what works, whats safe and what will break lol.

I've had my 2014 FR-S for a little over two weeks, and I'm loving it. My kids have grown (enough) that I can rekindle my love of driving a lightweight sports car. It's a whiteout 6MT version with a Katzkin red leather interior. Reminds me of my first sports car, a 1970 Opel GT with a red interior (like the one at the bottom of this post).

It might be a good investment here in CO.

....... mgweatherly ....... back to fun driving!

I like that "my kids have grown (enough)" .....

With my kids (3) grown enough was at age 18 - they couldn't wait to escape my rule ....

So, you have some driving trips planned come spring/summer ..??

New here!

Hi I just bought a new 2013 Raven FR-S (auto) since it's for me and my better half i'm loving the car so far and can't stop staring at it!
This car has been a dream of mine since the release of the concepts.
I bought the car on Saturday night and currently have around 100 miles on it and i'm babying it already!
I've been browsing the forums and everyone seems so great so I just thought i'd say hello along with a few questions.

I'm in so cal rowland heights area what's the best place to get mods done at a reasonable price and what are some good mods to do?

I'm sure there's a lot of forums on this but I also wanted to introduce myself.
