Joined the forum a while ago to look around at 5x100 wheels for sale. Recently traded in my tC1 for a 2015 FRS RS 1.0. Figure I make an proper intro. Picked her up this past Saturday. It was an opportunity and deal of my lifetime and couldn't pass it up. Minion /Pikachu is a blast to drive! I have plans to keep the GT86 theme going and most def keep her clean and classy!

Hello guys. Long time lurker in this forum. I think I was checking this site out before twins came out. Long time Honda guy. Took me about 1year before I settlees down on frs. Test drove first year frs was released but did not like it for somereason.
It came down to 370z and mustang 5.0.
Had 350z before and loved the car but didn't like how heavy it was.
Love the mustang's engine but hate the interior and how the car looks.
Test drove frs again day before I was going to pick up 370z, hmmmm something clicked.
Bought frs, thanks for having me here

Hello,

FRS/BRZ is on my shortlist for my next car. Thanks for all the info and discussions; they have really painted a great picture of what it's like to own.

Yes, test drove and loved it. Wanted to ask where in the forum is the right place to place a WTB post for a used FRS/BRZ?

Picked it up yesterday! Proud new owner of a 2015 Ultramarine Blue





Used to have an MR2, sold it to get the FRS. Will miss it but I wanted the FRS before I even bought the MR2

Hi all! I've been admiring the twins for years and began lurking the forums a week or so ago. And yesterday, Good Friday, we added a 2015 asphalt FR-S to the family. So far it is everything, and then some, that I - 'er the wife, dreamed of.


I come from the Camaro5 forums, and feel right at home here. It seems that great automobiles make for great communities.


Well, I'm going to go enjoy this beautiful day, take a ride, and take some pictures that I'll post later.

Hey everyone. Long time lurker here, finally got around to making an account. I have had my '13 FRS for over 2 years and still love it like the day I got it. Has a few mods so far, more to come when I find a money tree or buried treasure. I should be able to get a few pics up if the weekend stays nice.
