And an Si doesn't look much different from any other Civic (which, btw, my 17 y/o daughter drives one). I've only ever seen 1 other FR-S and one BRZ on the roads around here.

So FR-S it is. It was surprisingly hard to find a manual in a color I liked.

Congrats on the purchase! This car makes me not care about the Si navi model with all the bells and whistles. Loving it so far. Almost at 300 miles. Which means 700 more to go. Enjoy!

hey guys whats up, I'm new here to the forum, from Long Island NY. got my whiteout FRS may 2 so just over 3 weeks ago. when I haven't been working I've been in my garage working on my car. Ive been taking pictures step by step of what I've been doing and I'm going to post some things about the things I've done so far and also things I will be doing. The day I test drove it was the day I bought and ive been pretty much obsessed ever since.

Hey! I'm new around these parts! picked up a Raven FR-S recently. After a short hiatus, I am finally back into a tuner. I have always been a mitsu guy, but I fell in love with this car, so I just had to pick her up.

See ya around!

Hello ya'all. Just wanted to know the 86 community is like.
I recently got my 09 WRX crashed into a couch on the freeway going 70 mpg. Still waiting on the insurance claim. While I love the WRX, it pains me to think that I would have to pay for another one when the one I had was perfectly fine and was paid off

But now I'm looking into an 86. I test drove an FR-S and the only thing I didn't really like was the clutch pedal. It was too light for my tastes but other than that everything else was true about what they say about the car. Anyone know if the BRZ's clutch pedal is any different?

Welcome all!

HI! I've been wandering around this forum before I made the purchase to get myself familiar with common issues so that I would not be caught off guard and would know what to do if the issue popped up. Finally made the purchase last Saturday. Ultramarine FR-S. I LOVE the way the car handles. Definitely a phenomenal vehicle without a doubt, especially for the price. Decided to join the forum officially several days ago, definitely great information on here.

Already have LED everything and have HIDs. Ordered BC coilovers with 8/9k rates, should arrive in approx. 2-3 weeks. Planning on getting 18x9.5 wheels wrapped in 275/35 tires after that. Won't be going any lower than 1.5" MAX. Never "slamming" a car again. More trouble than its worth. But will also never have a car at stock height because that also looks terrible lol. Going for "grip function" for this car. Planning on making custom splitter and possible side extensions as well if it looks good.

Sorry for the long post :P
