Dropped my car off to have custom leather installed. Perforated black leather with red thread and red leather bolsters (like the oem seats).

It takes a day or two, so they gave me a rental.




A white Camry.



It's like driving a marshmallow through chicken fat. Seriously, if you know anyone that doesn't understand what "feedback" means in regard to driving a car, let them drive your FRS, then make them drive a Camry.

I've been meaning to ask you, is your hot lava a cop magnet? I love the color but passed on it because I envisioned being pulled over constantly.

These are from the drive!







They're just cell phone pics - I didn't bring my DSLR, but I will next time I go to actually shoot my car. Still turned out alright, for a cell phone!
Ahhh...... a road with curves and elevation changes must be nice!!!!! Thanks for the Pics

It doesn't help me remain inconspicuous when I have the TRD exhaust as well! Have had 3 cops stop and talk to me. All just wanted to know more about the car and two took sales person's cards.
I have been followed a few times and you just gotta know they were running the plates (can see them on the computer in my mirror) but I have a clean record so they leave me alone.
I am no angel when I drive but keep a close eye out for them and so far don't think any saw me do anything too far wrong anyway.
Can't even say they see an "old' guy and leave me alone because my windows are tinted and I like my music loud.
Each time I talked to one, the very first question out of their mouth was a surprised "Is this your car?"
Now my yellow 03 Lancer Rally Edition used to get me pulled over for "random" checks all the time so I was half expecting it but so far no issues..

The picture does not do justice to how deeply the plastic is actually grooved.
OUCH!! :'(
