From the grave to the track.
Well I just picked up a 2014 Fr-s from an insurance company for $4,000.
It has 10,600 miles on it and I'm going to be using it to drive in Vegas Drift, LVRSCCA, and Speed Ventures events. Since I don't have any social medias I'll post the progress of the car here ![]() This is it in the salvage yard. FullSizeRender by steven papania, on FlickrThe day the delivery guy dropped it off I put some nice track wheels and tires on it. RPF1 17x9 with Kumho V720's IMG_0479 by steven papania, on Flickr IMG_0480 by steven papania, on FlickrI got a new door along with some other parts from a really cool person I met on this forum. IMG_0483 by steven papania, on Flickr IMG_0556 by steven papania, on FlickrI painted the factory tow hook red because it probably adds like 10-12 horse power.

Heck of a deal, and glad to see it being enjoyed! Any plans to slap a grill in the front to protect the cooling components?
