$100 more is very reasonable to me.

haha..that's if that power boost comes.
hard to imagine that they would even give a significant power boost 2 years after they build an engine from scratch for this platform. |

Your chirp will return. May take a week, a month, a year. But it'll come back. Note that even the article you linked to states exactly this fact. |

The issue apparently affects any FR-S with a VIN# ending in 09026 or lower. Newer vehicles are not affected. That's news to those of us with newer cars...that chirp. And it's likely that yours is going to chirp again eventually too. |

Looks like I'll be waiting until '15 for that horsepower bump Tada mentioned.
