Yes sir, I got bored with the e92 M3 not much mods only main thing to do was a SC.. Which cost 8k+. Got tired of gas mileage 13 city. I feel more happy with the FR-S

Hmmm... Normally I should say congrats...
But unsure if it's from m3 to frs..
Lol
JK enjoy ur new car..
I wish my car will arrive earlier

FR-S86 · 10-20-2012, 08:56 PM

Lol I know, thanks. I guess I'm not ready to be in the higher class just yet. Now I can do things without thinking I'm messing up a 60k car!

Very cool. It's rewarding when the cheaper alternative can provide as many smiles.

just86 · 10-22-2012, 10:55 PM

Downgraded, I don't believe u

Crack can make you do horrible things. Get better soon...

FR-S86 · 10-23-2012, 02:09 AM

I downgraded but so what rather not spend 1k in gas a month, M3 was a fine car, but it lacks torque badly, I've been through 8 cars in the past yr, 2 SWP STi-1 350z- 1 Evo 9 SE- 1 Evo X with FP Black-1 2012 STi hatch- 1 335i hardtop and last was the M3. All was paid off for besides the M. Out of all I'm very happy with the FR-S most.

I'm happy to provide you every single link of the cars I sold and pictures of every car in the same parking lot.

Congrats on the new car. I totally understand the how stress and strains that come with a higher end sports car (especially on the financial side) could lead you to a cheaper alternative. My only concern is your complaint about torque being the part of your reasoning, especially considering it is one the FR-S' biggest short comings. Still, wish you the best with the new car
