Me and him are getting together Saturday to 'cruise. Everyone is welcome to come

I'm near the Wal-Mart in O'Fallon, close to the Fairview city limits. I've seen the one on base too. It would be great to be able to have a place to work on my car, thanks. I am hoping to get the Invidia N1 exhaust soon, so I definitely need somewhere to install that.

Cool... I'm right down the street from the mall sort of. If you know where Show Me's is, I'm on the same street that you have to turn on to get to their parking lot.

But so far I've confirmed 4 fr-s owners in the immediate area. 3 are ultramarine... lol I almost bought an ultramarine one myself.

As for the cruising for Sat I'll be in STL, and might end up spraying my stock wheels a new color for the hell of it. STLSubaru guys are doing a big cruise, down a pretty legit route here soon aswell... and on another note I just got my BRZ side vents today... 86 badges HAD to go.

Nice, so I live less than 2 minutes away from you. What color is your car then? I am still waiting on my car, ETA was the 16th - the 19th, still not here yet. Worst case, I will pick it up Saturday, because that's how life f'n works for me, so probably Saturday.

So do I. Think they're for lazy people. They're also unsafe. People rely on them and forget about the fact that they don't provide tail lighting. One of the dumbest features on most cars today.

It's SWP(Whiteout)... on bronze stockies, normal colored stockies, or bronze 18x9's lol... You'll see PR & Japanese flags on the rear view mirror.

They'll be fine with it as long as you're not driving like an asshat... Just think of them as other car guys and I might, depends I may have things to do... But my Subaru is sitting in pieces right now so if I do, I'd take the FR-S as it is technically a Subaru still

and no steering wheel controls WTF TOYOTA??
all that stuff. just weighs too much bud. weight saving is a big key factor to its wonderful design.:happy0180:

Then later I visited a dealership where they wouldn't let me test drive, but I was allowed to have a close look. I noticed the manual seat control and then I was

I might have to put a Korean flag on mine as well. Would be the only decal on my car.
