@M-17 yeah it was in the showcase. They didn't really describe the car though. They just said "brand new 2013 scion frs" and it was like an 80 year old lady named Oral(wtf?) who was bidding. Haha. Oh and it was ultramarine.

All I could think of was that episode of top gear where they taught the old ladies to drive around the track in some pretty nice cars. @IntotheOcean yeah that's me and my boyfriend's Elise. She's a beauty <3

Celica GT-S 2ZZ: 0.745
458 Italia 4.5L V8: 0.786
Twins FA20: 0.809
S2000 2.0L F20C: 0.819
S2000 2.2L F22C: 0.792
So...bigger engine equals less airflow consumption?

But to much airflow consumption means engine is trying to hard?

Trying to understand this..

Too much factory rice. Vents look like stick-on Autozone crap.

Wouldn't be surprised if they don't change it before it officially goes on sale. That, or pull a Honda and do a refresh after 1 year.

I agree with the looks. The first pics I saw of it was a picture at a distance with it pulling out of a road or something, and I couldn't tell if it was the new Corvette or a Ferrari 458. Those headlights look very similar.

Then I saw the tail lights...


/palm.

But it'll sell sadly.
