Great Dealer in Twin Cities Area??
Can anyone suggest a great dealer in the twin city area? My son and I are looking to buy an FRS and I have visited most of the dealerships and they all seem as if Scion is a second thought to them.Of course, I would like to find a dealer who gives a little on the price too.Also, one who is interested in supporting FRS’s.Maybe there is one, but I have talked to most in the metro area.I have asked about a FRS club that does FRS/BRZ events during the summer.Flash mob drives around the lakes and then snacks at their dealership?Sunday drives on winding roads, FRS/BRZ track or autox day(s), anything…Like I said, maybe there is a local FRZ/BRZ club, but they don’t seem to know about it. Does anyone know of a dealer like this in the metro or surrounding area??Is there a local club?

I'm happy with the service department in Burnsville and can't complain about the dealership. Don't know about a specific club, but there are many in the area. In the spring and fall, I go for a drive that I call the Wisconscion. It's an all day adventure thru the countryside, down to Hansen's Hold Up for lunch and back.

Bought my FR-S at Burnsville Toyota. I talked to Nikhom when I got my FR-S, and had one of the best sales experiences. Their finance/sales management didn't pressure me either, which was really nice. Their service department also never gave me a hard time when I had my 2010 Corolla either.

Senior Analyst, race(d) with the CRA for 8 years and am now doing more with cars on the track. Current car list includes a few BMWs, the BRZ, and a V8 4Runner to haul everything around.
Snow tires on 17x8 Kosei K4R wheels are on their way so I can enjoy the BRZ as a daily driver and play on some frozen lakes, and will then swap out the winters for 235 R Comps in the summer and put the winters on the OEM wheels. |

For people Im not friends with on the ol FB here (and to bump this sleepy thread)
Trying my hand at vinyl wrapping. More to keep myself busy with something car related in these long winter months. Going fairly well so far. I might duplicate this post to my also very lonely build thread lol Purchased a 5x1 sheet of Satin White Pearl and after making a mistake on the head unit trim, it was just barely enough. No piece has come out completely perfect but good enough for the girls I date (lol)
