ty, I wanted to do the toyota rustproof and undercarriage spray, but I found on RFD (red flag deal), people where getting rustproof, undercarriage spray, paint protection and clear coat all for the same price that I was offered for rust and under spray protection. So I declined, or at least for now... If I ever did rust proof from another place it would be rustcheck or just spray rustcheck aerosol underneath myself as last resort.

Any FRS RS owners put GAP into their financing?

I did, but that was just because I was carrying over so much from my last car loan. I wanted out of the POS that I was willing to take the big hit.
The gap made sense in my case as the loan was more then the value of the car.

Thinking about last week, I believed the reason I stalled was because of letting the clutch too soon and I shifted to third instead of first.

Base model ftw!!! If you're into modding cars like the majority of the community, you're gonna change out basically everything at one point or another. Those Scion 1.0, 2.0, 856292.0, and so on just aren't worth the cost of the markup.

Go for the brz though. Better headlights.

:o I see, sorry for the late reply guys, Ive been sick/busy in less then 12hrs from now ill be picking up my RS 1.0 after work, I saw it in person a few days ago as it was getting detailed and gosh darn it, The yellow looked so much more better in person then it did in pictures. Pictures just don't do justice, I was so excited it reminded me of getting my ps3 when I was younger! all butterflies in my tummy at that moment, unfortunately for me my bumper came drilled . Ill be posting pics and maybe a video today with my go pro!
