Hello all! Joined the forums a few weeks ago, but finally picked up my raven MT FRS yesterday. I came from a S13 SR20DET which is sitting in the driveway after my clutch started going. So far, loving the FRS! ^_^

Hi there, my name is Bob from Luxembourg Europe. I own an AE86 and I plan to sell my IS250 for a GT86. Owned a Miata NC before and just miss the lightness, drive feeling,... The IS250 is just to lazy.
Here are some pics of my AE86 and "not my GT86" ![]() ![]() ![]() More pics on my blog: http://monkeymagic86.wordpress.com/2.../gt86-vs-ae86/ |

Hey guys my name is Dale. I currently drive a 07 Toyota Tacoma, but it is being sold Saturday! I have a brand new red FR-S lined up to buy that next week from a dealership in Virginia. I am soo incredibly stoked to have an FR-S.
I used to own a 2002 GTI that I raced in time attacks, circuitcrosses, and autocrosses. I sold it when I went to college, but now I am graduating and I am hopping back into a sports car! I plan on doing some time attacks and autocrosses in the FR-S and I can't wait to start setting it up and tuning in the suspension. I am also looking forward to learning and contributing to others on this website. Dale. |

Hey everyone, I'm from Toronto Canada!
I'm new to the forum and to Scion/Toyobaru. I'm currently driving an Audi A3 2.0T. I work as a performance driving instructor during the summer and I am looking for a new car. I actually did the track launch for the Scion FR-S and Scion Canada back in July and spent a good 3 hours on track in an FR-S taking people for rides. I was completely sold on the car after the first corner. It's a phenomenal driving machine out of the box. Hopefully I will be in the drivers seat of my own FR-S in the coming months! |

Hello everybody! I'm from the Birmingham Al area. Traded my 2011 MGM Scion TC in for a manual 2013 Whiteout FR-S last week. This is my 3rd Scion. From my short time spent driving this car I don't thing I'll be doing a lot to it. It's just too balanced already. Maybe lighter wheels/better tires but plans are to keep it as our fun little weekend car. I'll have a better idea on future plans after our annual trip to the mountains of TN/NC.

Hi Everyone,
New here, located Central California. Finally been able to pick up a Ultramarine FR-S a couple of weeks ago in So Cal from Longo Scion. It was a good experience. I was calling around to find a vehicle and it was getting a little difficult to locate one or find a dealership I wanted to work with. David at Longo Scion was easy to deal with from the start. Longo Toyota I have heard is one of the largest Toyota Dealerships in the world, if not the largest. They event have their own Starbucks and Subway inside the dealership! Hence they get a larger allotment of FR-S vehicles then any other dealership, weekly, monthly, etc. End result, my chances where better sticking with Longo! He added me to the waiting list and called me in two weeks and mentioned my color became available. Pretty painless and fast. Love the car and looking forward to participating with the community! Wheels and brakes are first on the mods list! I'll keep you guys posted! ![]()

Hola
Hey Guys!
I just put a $500 deposit down on a manual raven or Argento FR-S. i've been lurking around here for a bit. I'm super excited...just waiting for the call. I am buying from Santa Monica Scion here in Los Angeles, they have been pretty helpful so far...just waiting for the call...it's excruciating. haha Also, kinda nervous of stalling out on the lot..haven't driven stick in about 7 years. |

I just picked my car up from Russel Scion in Catonsville, MD, so I'm now an official FR-s owner! Awesome so far, but I was almost all the way home before I figured out the cruise control. Going to sit down with a beer and the manual....

Brand New FR-S Owner
Picking up my Raven FR-S Monday - had hoped it would be ready today but all the paperwork nonsense is going to delay it. Traded in my Scion tC RS6.0. Have loved the FR-S since I saw the first pictures of it. Took the tC to the dealer yesterday and there was my love sitting on the showroom floor just waiting for me to jump in!!

Hey all,
Brand new here to the forum. I drove a 2006 Honda Civic on boost. The car was a lot of fun, then I moved up north to a real harsh winter and my engine blew. I'm hoping to pick up a white FR-S either later this month or early next. I'm really excited! I also am part owner of J2Motorsports.net. We're petty new and hope to eventually sponsor the site! |
