Cars + Coffee, I'm planning on going this Saturday.

Specialized Performance's 86 - starts getting good on pg. 7. You were the first (and probably only) Series 10 though.

Yes, all the 10 Series FR-S' come with those headlamps

edit: the tone this exhaust makes stock is wonderful, so I have no complaints. I love it. some people are sensitive to the extra tip which does nothing. I am irritated, but can still find the beauty in this exhaust enough to put it on anyways

Ah okay, looks good even if its not functional lol.

Wasn't talking about the 10 series. I know those do. I was talking about the "first TRD complete" FRS in the states, and was one of the first 86's. Meaning it is not a 10 series because those were released this year. So my statement was towards that wondering yes is it TRD complete? Sure but does he have the headlamps, that is the mystery.

Well you got a point there, He was the first one with a TRD Aero kit And the first one with original Led Headlights. But i would classify you'res as more complete because you brought mostly all the parts, except the Body kit which you didn't want if im correct?

exactly. I still have more stuff coming! I bought everything bro, except for a handful of items which I passed on for convenience sake: the race gauges (I added them then cancelled my order), the race seats (I added them then cancelled my order), the body kit (ask Luis, I was against body kit day one), and the rear diff (being told to try the stock one, but likely will order it soon anyways just to have...). One big clue is, if one bought the TRD Big Brake kit, then you know they likely have everything else...the big brakes alone are $10,500, you pay about a $3000 premium over the Brembo stamped versions...im roughing the numbers. there are only a handful of us I've seen who went all out...1 in Australia, 1 in Hong Kong, a few press cars ive seen, but honestly I have not seen a full build in America yet? I could be wrong...

also, I was even willing to try the $25,000 prototype supercharger kit but Luis talked me out for various reasons...

bottom line, i'm in love with this car...i'm willing to keep throwing as many tasteful mods as I can towards it, while maintaining OEM TRD status.

edit: it's a matter of time before I buy those TRD race seats, I really want them, I'm just worried it will be inconvenient for my kids...
