Ahhhhhhh cut it out with the traction control shit it'a 200hp car for crying out loud, I alway's drive without it and the only time I lose my tale it's because i do it on purpose and it is very easy to get the control back. People get into accident cause the drive like ass and do stupid things.

3 months ago before I purchase my BRZ, I told everyone to stay away from FRS because they are more tailored towards these younger kids who are inexperienced. And more than likely these same kids mustve been driving a TC or Civic prior to this new cool RWD car. In the end, my BRZ insurance better not go up because of those FRS's.

To be frank, this is just pure embarassing and I am 100% happy I am driving the Subaru now and have made the right decision.

He drives an FRS, those tend to oversteer more from the way their suspension is setup.

Soooo, guys, I hate to say it, but this was me.

I just got my FRS 2 days ago in Cali, and @Giccin and I were going out to get some dinner. I thought it would be cool to do a little drift on a big left turn to show @Giccin that I was cool and I just lost it because of the power. The momentum just took me up the curb and into the building. The look on the lady who was working in the office I crashed into was absolutely priceless though! Although, she ended up getting a few stitches because of the glass that went into her forehead...


It's not too bad... But the entire front clip on the left side is crushed in and the frame damage is probably irreparable. So, I'm hoping to get a new FRS soon...


But that's what these cars are for, right?!?

21-25 317 32.65%
26-30 245 25.23%
30-40 202 20.80%
40+ 152. 15.65%

64% of owners are under 30 years old. I think most of us crashed at least once when we were young (i'm in the 15%) - i crashed my '81 civic, yes that's nineteen eighty-one the year they invented dirt. We're going to see a few of these - not many young drivers have experience with rwd - assuming of course that it was a young driver. I know i think back and wonder how i didn't get hurt or killed doing the stupid stuff i did. All part of growing up...

^ I crashed when I started driving at the age of 19. But that was because I was too much in a rush and the 1991 Toyota Previa van I drove had really bad brakes. It wouldnt brake fast enough and there was a couple times in the mornings where I thought I was going to crash had the car in front of me wouldve kept braking. Good riddance for being young. I am almost 25 now so I have more exp and now am more mature about the road.

Well, might as well pull a me. I now own an FF, AWD, and RWD. Just need an MR to complete my life... NSX?

for being stupid.
If you can't drift don't try on public roads. This isn't what this car is for.
