Probably take the car upstate for some fun. I def not driving this car in winter, i will just park it for couple of weeks till snow is out of the way.. Last winter, i was cleaning a car and some ass**** had loud music on and driving a bigggg SUV going so fast while there was a red light, I was like 1 feet away from the car when it passed me. I was going to tell him to slow down but i said fuck it, he might just say i distracted him etc... He stomps on brakes and it skids into a small suv while it was waiting on the red light. A lot of dumb ass drivers. I even seen some ******* ass*** double park in an area with 2 lanes ( now only 1 because he double park) and this area, people are driving 40 mph and a lot of traffic too. He is lucky no one rear ended his ghey ass. Whenever I go to manhattan and i see a women drive a middle class car, I swear to god, all the women i seen, they are either texting or putting on make up. ( near times square) |

Wow that is really expensive 0.0 here it is $1.47/litre Which is 1.06/litre. But that price is for a gas station called Esso and I'm getting the price from a website that finds the lowest price. For Shell which I think has better gas it's only $1.44/ litre, which is kind of weird. I don't own a car right now so I don't really know what the average is at right now, but I think a year or two back the average was only around $0.90 and $1.00

I will use my ft86 for hauling 2x4's and firewood. With great balance and precision, and a low center of gravity.

I'd be using my 86 track/street driving, not a 100% dedicated daily driver but will go with me every so often.

So what do you plan to do with your FRS?
Not sure if this has been posted but came up with no hits.
Topic: What do you plan on doing with your FRS? Drifting? Show Car? Racing? Or Simply just enjoying it on the town? I plan on just making mine "pretty" (black/white shamu bling) , dont get me wrong its a beautiful car but i think i could add my own nice little touch to it. Honestly i see this car to be more of "show" then performance but thats just me although i do think it has plenty of potential who knows how powerful it can truly be as of yet. So what do you want to do with yours? |

I plan to make it into a lowrider, paint it bright purple with a couple layers of clearcoat sparkle paint, slap these on it
Put it on airbags or maybe some hydraulics so I can bounce, attach some steel plates to the skid plates underneath that are already there so I can throw sparks when I slam it down and tint the windows to a 5% orange tint. I'm gonna totally rework the inside too, reupholster the seats in bright blue peccary leather and maybe put in some plush carpeting. It'll be great. |
