Hi all! Bought a brand new FR-S Release Series 1 a couple weeks ago now. Makes me smile every time I drive the thing (and look at it in my driveway). Everyone is fascinated with it where ever I go. That just adds to the fun!

After sharing my experience here, sometime I just rather experience and research outside this site. Unmoderated.

Hello everyone!

I'm new to the FT86 world. Just picked up my brand new(left over)2013 Scion FR-S Series 10. I work at the dealership I bought it from so I got a great deal on it. I'm coming from a very different part of the car world from a 2006 Mustang GT.

So far I've been loving this car and the way it handles. While it may not be as fast as the GT was in a straight line, this thing can drive circles around the 'stang.



I love the Ignition Silver color, and the GT86 headlights this one comes with. It's numbered 100 of 2500.





This is what I came from

Hi Guys,

Finally purchased a new 2014 Whiteout FRS. Got a great deal with $3,500 off and Nav for free so had to do it. Been eyeing this car up since the concept stage. Happy to say I'm now an owner

This car will be replacing my Skyline C210 as my daily. Skyline will now be a weekend warrior and show queen.

First mod is going to be coilovers trying to deoced between ST and Stance. Not going to track it at all just daily with nice stance. If anyone has any opinions please chime in.

I'll try to post progress here but my instagram profile will have everything ===> 00aujla

Thanks

Registered a week or two ago and posted twice recently. The FR-S I was hoping to get is coming this Tuesday, but I didn't get approved for financing, so I'll have to wait, but I'll get an FR-S soon enough! I do work for a Toyota dealership where I'm at, so I'll be more than happy to help people out get genuine OEM parts at below retail if I could.

Hello Everyone,

I've been dreaming of this car since it's concept and finally have a possibility if becoming a proud owner in mid-late 2015.

Thankfully I have this forum (lurking for a while now) to keep me busy until than. Thank you to all the knowledgeable members reassuring my knowledge and helping me learn more!

Waiting and dreaming,
Sosa
