New owner. Just saying hi!
Hey everyone! My name is Caleb and I just got 13 FRS. Only had about 2 weeks now, but I'm loving it! Great little car! I don't really have any pics of it, its completely stock though. Nothing really to show any ways.
Little history on my car ownership: Very limited to be honest. My list of previous cars is below with any pics that I have. 2001 Ford Focus ZX3-First car. Absolutely loved it. Wouldn't mind having another as a daily driver one day. Pretty much stayed stock. It had an intake. Thats it. 2004 Mazda RX8-First car that really got modded, and I wish I didn't have to sell it. 2014 BMW X1 sDrive28i-Not a bad car. I made it look good, but I just didn't love it. 2013 Scion FRS-You already know. PICS!! No Focus pics, so first the RX8 2004 Mazda RX8 Megan Racing coilovers ExoticSpeed exhaust Mazdaspeed CAI BHR ignition upgrade Double DIN DVD player w/sub and amp 18X10.5 +27 TSW Interlagos w/ 265/35 square setup         2014 BMW X1 sDrive28i M-sport Red Dakota leather Burger Motorsports JB4 tune Rear muffler delete w/eBay tip Retrofitted BC-Racing coilovers BMW Performance kidney grilles Inovit Force 5 wheels F-19x8.5 +35 235/35/19 R-19x9.5 +32 265/30/19 http://e84.xbimmers.com/forums/showp...69&postcount=1 EDIT* Currently at work, so I can't access Flickr for the pics of the X1. But theres the link to my post on Bimmerpost. |

Wow. That BMW has really square wheel arches. Never noticed that before.
Awesome RX8. Funny how the hyper flared fender style is becoming prevalent again. The RX8 seems a bit ahead of its time. |

Theres actually a couple things that the RX8 had that BMW are now starting to use. The latest M3/4 uses a carbon fiber driveshaft. RX8 (6mt) had one from the first model onward. Many new BMWs are using electronic power steering. RX8 also had that. The RX8 had its flaws though...lol |
