Pretty much sport mode at all times, except when I know I'm entering a parking lot then the nannies come off fully. On an ironic note. Outside of our meets in the summer I barely see the twins. IN the last couple of days have seen 6. Go figure.

Just picked up my 2013 FRS the Saturday before last! So happy to finally own one of these.

Drive to work has been... interesting to say the least. Only have the stock summers on the wheels right now so I needed ALL the nannies just going from the Lees apartments to Gatineau. Was still slipping and sliding most of the way. Lol

Welcome aboard!

If you are looking for winter wheels and snows, consider our good friend Andre ( @Slick ) at Slick Automotive http://slickautosolutions.com/Slick_...Solutions.html

Congrats and welcome!
if you plan on driving all winter, you need winter tires.
PLEASE be extra careful and safe in the mean time.

what @FRS_Ken said, talk to @Slick and he will set you up right.

Tires from @Slick
Oil coating from Metropolitan
Lapping in the summer

Thanks Guys for the props.
Yeah, give me a shout at 763-0011
or email me at andre@slickautosolutions.com.

I'll be at the shop most of the day tomorrow.


Btw, would any folks be interested in all-weather mats?
I can get front mats and also rear cargo liners now.
If so, I'll post up some pricing in the commercial forum.
