Drove my FR-S today, did not crash... - Page 98 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

After being overseas and then only driving my RunX, I took the 86 out to a band meetup last night. Added a nice 1.2 L/100km onto my wife's average in the short distance I drove, and smiled all the way to the meet and back home. Didn't even crash!

Figured I should make my debut post on this thread.

Not exactly my FR-S, but I did drive my Genesis Coupe the other day and DID crash it... then went out and bought my 2015 Asphalt FR-S.

Sorry for the lack of pictures and low quality. Had my old S7 and well, was just in an accident so I wasn't really going for beauty.

And here's a quick cell phone pic of the new car

Hopefully this beauty doesn't come to the same end as the Genesis.. cross your fingers!

Welcome to the gang -

Too bad about your old car, it looks like a train hit it -

I hope nobody was hurt.

Your new car looks good!

Yeah, thank god I didn't have a passenger.. oh well, everything happens for a reason and I'm really happy with my decision!

OK, here is your first hint about your new car - stay the hell away from whatever hit your last car ..

It was a nice morning ride

I drove for 2 years without a single crash and so I installed a supercharger. With the supercharger I still didn't crash. Proof that a supercharger will not make you crash.

Drove my FRS to work today. It might just be coincidence, but it seems that other drivers get out of the way a bit quicker when my car has been recently detailed. Did not crash, but I did pass like a muthaF'a...

My wife has actually commented in this a couple of times. She would be following a few cars back and noticed that when I slowed or stopped cars behind me would stay way back. I started watching and found that the cleaner the car was the further way people drove or moved over when I came up behind them. Thought it was just a Canadian thing.
Now mind you the best car to drive if you want people to move over and slow down is a black Charger but that is because other drivers are worried for different reasons.

Washed car yesterday. Did not crash.

Drove to work today. I accidently left the window down last night and my windshield was fogged up on the outside and the inside. Did not crash.

Brings to mind a back in Missouri story, before the present mrs humfrz and I were married, she come over to my house - for a sleepover.

She wanted to park her precious 1980s some Dodge Daytona in my garage. No problem. However, she left her drivers side window down and during the night, one of my Missouri semi-wild cats nabbed a squirrel and drug it into her car (black cloth interior) to eat it, away from the other cats.

Welp, the next morning she went out to her car and let out a scream. That cat left nothing but the skull, the feet and the tail of the squirrel. The fur was evenly scattered all throughout the inside of her car.

She drove my car to work.

I spent the day cleaning up the guts, blood and fur from the inside of her car.

However, the sex WAS good the night before -

Hit a shredded tire on the road the other day, popped all the clips off of the wheel well liner and scratched the crap out of the bumper and now my blinker isn't working

then today as I am driving home a rock cracked my windshield...

I didn't crash though so there's that.

Hit one of those retread gators in the road a couple years ago on the freeway in the dark.
New front clip, paint and wheel liner.

Only up side was I got rid of the holes from the port installed license plate mount.
