New to me FR-S
Drove to Ft Wayne and picked it up today. Best Fathers Day gift I've ever gotten for sure!
It's a 2013 FR-S AT (we couldn't find a MT with low miles and in the budget close enough to test drive). 36,000 miles, serviced at the dealer with records, clean Carfax. Zero open recalls. Paid $15,000 for it which seems like a good deal after shopping around for a couple weeks. It's in excellent shape! I was so amped my 2 hour drive home took 4 hours! I didn't want to get out...what a drive! I love this car. Thanks for all the great research and information you guys have on here. It helped me make a great choice. |

Thank you everyone.
Today was spent tire and wheel shopping and researching low coolant (seems to be a common thing?) My temps are cool, no signs of leakage. Reservoir is just damn near visibly empty. Remedying that pronto...with the super long lasting Blue stuff as recommended. Amazon cart is getting heavy and hard to push... |
