i'm a little late to the party but I picked up my Argento FR-S on June 15th and i
have not been disappointed with the car in the last month of ownership. well,
it could use a little more power below 5K but that is a minor issue.

this is my grocery getter and autocross vehicle so i will not be going overboard
with the mods, just enough to make it handle even better.

I'm tempted by the air raid group buy, but then the more I think about it the more I want to keep it stock for the first year ish to see what the Sti announcement ends up being.

I'm on Mopac a lot, so it could have been me, really depends on the time of day though.

Yeah a long time ago I thought of "NVTHIS" when there was 6 characters. But now there is 7 so "ENVTHIS" would be better.But gonna wait to get something close to 6 figures before I want to pay for the yearly registration cost.
