The jump drive is really cool, as is the shirt. Just in case you're wondering, (I don't think this was posted) the jump drive is 1GB.

Agree with that! I also think its cool that one of the pens is "Firestorm" ink, which is the color I'm ordering.

(Yea, I know others got one of each, but let me have my moment).

I have to admit, I was hoping the usb drive contained some "secret" information, like an operating manual, price list, Meatloaf MP3s, something like that.

It will definitely be in the suitcase. I might have to see if my wife has any fabric paint so I can make the car the "right" color though.

one scion even i went to when they were just announcing the iQ and tC2, they gave away USB drive "bracelets", they had macbooks set up in the showroom area.
there were videos of the cars and desktop backgrounds you could download onto them.

I wonder if the same kinda thing might be set up for you guys over there.

This stuff IS nice to keep along with the car. I've already started my FR-S showroom in my garage! I bought a HUGE poster of the concept car on eBay and had it framed and it is hanging in front of where the car will be parked. I've even framed the letters that we've received from scion to go along with it. I'm thinking about NOT taking the shirt with me to Long Beach because it might end up in one of those Jersey display cases along with all the trinkets they've sent us. The wife thinks I'm nuts, but I'm enjoying it!

I think you're nuts too, but then again all of my stuff is set aside

As long as you're having fun, why not?

3 weeks 'til party fun time!

The skid pads are for cell phones and ipods or tables.. You stick it on the back of the phone then you can set it on the dash without the phone falling off.

what's sad is i thought of it backwards, stick it to the dash so shit doesnt slide off....all this excitement is ruining my resale value (glue marks) before i even get the car

they can work either way really.
they sell small mats in stores that aren't a "sticker" and you can move it where ever you happen to need it.

I'm probably going to do similar with most of the stuff they send us, but I seriously doubt my FR-S will have enough value in 10 years (let alone 20) to resell. Since this will be my daily driver, it is very likely to have 200K+ miles in 10 years. Even as one of the 1st 86, there probably won't be much value there.

It's cool being one of the First, but the bottom line is mine won't be a hanger queen and no one is going to ever consider it collectible unless the other 85 get totalled along the way.
