This thing had overly plasti-dipped red stock wheels to the point where it was globby in some areas. Boxer emblems plastidipped so much that you couldn't even discern the '86' logo without staring at it. Random stickers all over the front bumper and the rear, especially that "I like my heels high and my cars low" bit plastered across the rear bumper. Tint that is far passed the legal limit for tinting, can't even imagine you could see out of the windows at night. Aftermarket exhaust with ridiculously huge tips with one side drooping significantly lower than the other. This car was a mess.

I'm all for originality and yes, his/her money not mine, but if you're going to do all that stuff to your car, at least do it properly. I dunno, I guess it's just the elitist side of me not wanting these cars to go down the route of riced out civics of the late 90s early 00s.

Even my girlfriend (in the shot) who knows next to nothing about cars had a chuckle at how comical this car looked.

How come when I say this I look like a Nazi...

I also agree that most of the people I see driving these cars are total ****s. Some ****head teenager in an ultramarine doing AT LEAST 90 and weaving through traffic on the 8 East and another idiot in a (stock) white BRZ trying to race me on the same freeway? DUDE! My fucking car has the same engine as yours! As appearances go it would seem like my car probably has engine work done compared do your dirty, stock BRZ!

If either of you are on here PM me so I can internet fight with you. I'll be hoping that you wrap your car(s) around a tree in the meantime.

Today I found my twin at Diamond Bar Village Apartments (Diamond Bar, CA) at 2:00pm Wednesday July 23. It's a whiteout (2014?) /halo (2015?) FR-S with black shark fin and wheels, plasti-dipped black emblem and gas tank door and boxer logo on the side vent, and Valenti tail lights. We even have the same tinting levels for our windows.

The top of the back windshield (below the shark fin) also has a white sticker that says "SOCAL FR-S", so most likely you are part of this forum? You are still there when I picked up my car at 3:30pm.



The front is almost the same too, for some reason the front emblem wasn't blacked-out.



Then at 5:26pm while driving east on Valley Blvd towards, I saw a stocked Ultramarine (long-haired male asian teen driver) driving on the opposite direction between Nogales Street and Fairway Dr. Didn't wave at you because you were looking straight.

This one was in Fontana. Make an effort for next year? It's still relatively new. .well I believe it is the turn out wasn't huge. But I still really liked the integration of a show and/or track time
