Nice car BTW
We've got LOTS and LOTS of SnowBirds from Alberta, BC, and other Canadian provinces here and I love it cause I was born in Montreal!
Last year, I saw a badass-looking black Lambo with Saskatchewan plates in my town here in AZ!

Hahaha yeah it seems like every other person over 50 I know has a place down there!! I think it is because a $500,000 house in Calgary is like 3 bedroom 2 bath small house and down there you can get a castle for that hahaha! Its too bad the dollar sucks so much now though.

This sat, there's supposed to be a first sat of every month cruise/meet/carshow ala "cars-and-coffee" in Scottsdale. It's my understanding it will be mostly high-dollar exotic supercars there. I'm gonna bring my new GoPro and my humble little FRS. Should be fun!

As it is, the car is so low that it scraps over driveways, speed bumps everything!
My Bilsteins are set to the lowest setting at the moment. I think aero is overrated.
It only comes into play over 100mph.
This is primarily a street car.

So you're in Monterrey eh?
Growing up in California, I've been to several races at Laguna Seca. I'd love to drive the FRS on that track!

I like how they look.
Just too heavy for my taste.

Yeah definitely heavier than the 86, but I still loved my 350z. I had bolt on's and a NISMO short shifter and it was a blast to drive, and sounded amazing. Would still take the 86 over it though. The car is just getting so dated now too, much like the new STI's using the same EJ over and over.
