LOL i am sure it will happen eventually. I dont need to worry about trying to claim I am the fastest. My goal currently is trying to find the limits of the car without breaking anything or myself in the process. When people say this car handles well they arent kidding. I have never driven a car so planted to the road when its all stock (It came with cooper tires not the prius ones though). Also not voiding my warranty.

Hello!

Hi everyone! I just bought a 2016 manual FR-S in Raven. Should be picking it up in about a week or so, I'm really excited!

I'm into LEDs and lighting so it'll be interesting getting feedback from you guys on my future projects. Can't wait till then!

Hey everyone, I have been a long time creeper of this site and just purchased a galaxy blue 2013 brz limited with 6spd with about 30k miles on it. I was very back and forth between a brz and a 350z and eventually decided I wanted a newer car with less miles and less wear as a starting platform and I've been a big fan of the twins since I first heard about them. I'm currently in Afghanastan and unfortunately I won't get the even drive it for a few more months. I already ordered a set of Enkei rpf1's and currently researching lca's and coils. I am very much looking forward to learning more about these cars and meeting some new people.

Guess it depends on miles/condition of the used monogram, but coming from an owner of '15 base frs, I sometimes wish I had just sprung the extra for a monogram/10 series. The headlights alone are worth it. Dual climate, push to start, keyless entry plus other little goodies are things that you don't think you will want until you don't have them. Those are all expensive upgrades if you do decide you want them in the end. I'm currently looking at upgrading my halogen projector headlights to the GT86 HIDs and that alone will cost me ~$2200...

Hope that helps!

Thanks!
Shane

Hi! I've been a long time lurker for a while but only recently joined the forum (yesterday in fact!). I am a proud owner of a 2013 Scion FR-S whiteout as of 09/11/2014. My venture into this platform started with me actually trying to find a S2000 at the time as I thoroughly enjoy driving with the top down. The FRS then was out of the question then. I came across my car on happenstance when looking around for cars on craigslist. I ended up meeting with the original owner and it was love at first sight. Sometimes I miss enjoying the California sun with the top down, but I regret nothing. It's been a blast! It has remained relatively stock till just recently where it has been lowered a bit and swapped the wheels. I hope to learn more about this car from the collective knowledge of everyone here. Pleasure to be here!
