I live in lisle, but have a blue frs. Waved at the owner of a firestorm frs that goes to benedictine university, but he never waved back. I dont think he's on here.

I still have yet to see another one of the twins, except at the dealer, for sale, or at Touge Factory, there were two there when I was there. I swear you folks are all imaginary, there cant be this many out there, and not see a one.

There are FR-S on almost every lot over in my neck of the woods, I dont think anyone down here can afford to drive a car like this. They all go for the 83 riviera with the 26" rims. Rims need to cost more than the car you know, and its pretty tough to fit 50" rims on an FR-S, and thats the class you would have to be in to fulfill those requirements.

I've seen a couple locally, and I'll catch one driving on 94 once in a blue moon. It's a car for a specific range of people, so I don't expect to see many honestly.

ello errbody,
I'm currently live in Wheaton.
Question! How is the ride quality on the brz/frs on real chicago roads. Its hard to get a good opinion since everyone that reviews these cars are on nice smooth roads on the west coast. I plan on getting a white brz in febuary once the snow dies down.

I'm not too far from you, I live right behind benedictine college (maple and college rd). If you want to check mine out, I'm usually free on sundays.
