Finally found a Whiteout AT!!!

I've been looking for a Whiteout FR-S since these bad-boys started slowly rolling into dealerships in my area. My wife had two criteria for my new purchase:

1. Could not be red which was fine, since I wanted Whiteout anyway.
2. Must be automatic. I generally prefer a manual, but I was fortunate enough to test drive an automatic, and I liked it just as much as the manual that I test drove.

Long story short, I found the exact car I wanted, but she was over 5 hours away. The drive up SUCKED but the drive back was awesome! Got my new baby Sunday, and have since put close to 600 miles on her. She's awesome!

At the dealership waiting on paperwork:






My 6'5" 265lb buddy (front seat) and 5'11" 190lb buddy (back seat) when we got to lunch today. They were packed in there like sardines! My buddy in the back was fairly comfortable - the guy up front said he was comfy aside from his knees being againsr the dash.

I was impressed with the useable space - I didn't think they'd fit!

I just searched around me (Cleveland Ohio) for an FRS on Autotrader.com with a radius of 50 miles and there are about 5-6 whiteout automatic FRS's.

If anyone is looking for white, come out here.

Although your friends say they were comfortable.

But it isn't comfortable at all with 2 extra people in GT86. It's a 2 seater and should remain that way as much as humanly possible.

I had no idea they were both going to climb in. Nice to know that it is possible - but I wouldn't suggest it.
