It was one of the first 86 I think. I just went down there over the weekend. Nice looking car. Nice guys. They have to keep rotating the cars they said...trust me they had some nice ones back there.

Buncha Negative Nancys in here... That's a smokin' deal for someone who has the money, assuming you like the styling (I'm not crazy about the kit but the rest of it is pretty sweet). I seriously doubt you could duplicate that car for only $45k. Someone grab it!!

Can't tell if serious...

Stickers are SEMA sponsor stickers...they are removable.

Custom bodywork...thats the Ing's bodykit, you know, replaces the whole front bumper...and it's been color matched. Also the hood and trunk are Seibon CF parts...reading comprehension is a good thing.

Not changing the look of the car...I really don't know what to say to this. Were you expecting a super rice rocket bunny kit like a bunch of shops threw on their show cars and then a bunch of look at me graphics thrown on to make it look like a race car? Or were you expecting them to make it look like a Lexus LFA...? Besides the wing and the stickers the car is very tastefully done and isn't garish. Not everyone wants a cop magnet. Those Niche wheels are absolutely gorgeous on this car as well...I almost want to trade my 57Xtremes for them they are that nice.

$45,000 sounds like a lot, especially considering the majority of forum browsing buyers of this car cant afford to upgrade their own FRS/BRZ more than some plastidip and a catback. If you take into account the cost of every part on that car, and then the labor costs of installation, then account for depreciation of the value of those parts and you will be looking at about $45k. To be honest this car is a steal at that price...I'm already over $45,000 invested in this car and I still need seats, brakes, aero parts, and an untold number of supporting mods like urethane bushings and paint. I wasn't expecting to spend this much it's just that everything adds up...and that's not even accounting for tax.
