Looking to buy a clean title 6 speed stock fr-s with recall done, I have 11k to spend. Prefer a white color in Tri-State area.

A fellow CT member. I gotta say that is going to be quite tricky. Having the recall done does not guarantee they vehicle will be in a good condition as some vehicles turned out worse after getting the recall done. Im assuming you're getting back into the platform or is it your first twin.

Oh hey neighbor. Yea getting back in, I had one back in 2017. I heard about the recall and sold it before anything happened. What would you recommend, one with recall not done or done?

Good to hear having you back.

I mean, with the current market situation and the available funds you have, the car might have the recall done, but might be in the high miles or probably something will be malfunctioning. People are asking pretty outrageous prices for used FR-S, twins in general.

Getting with or without the work done is basically a hit or miss. I would base the purchase on how it drives over an extended test drive.

A total fiasco. If you are not forced to have it done for registration reasons forget you ever heard about it and walk away.
