The hard part is done!

I sold my car today so now im one step closer to getting my frs . I even got what I wanted for my car. Sold my 07 scion Tc for 15000$ and they bought the air ride parts I was selling separate for another 1000$. So I got a good down payment for the frs now.

What's everyone think about getting 16k for a 07 Tc with 93k miles in it lol. Almost as much as u bought it for. I guess the mods paid off.

I think this is great. A large down payment (if not full upfront payment) is such a gratifying way to buy a vehicle. Congrats and i commend you on your financial faculties. I have no comment on the mods.

Haha yeah I know it was a wow factor car for shows but that's what the buyer liked so It let me sell it for more than kbb so I'm happy. I'm doing way less and more of a clean look with the frs. I wanna Beable to autox it if I want and I'm so excited not to deal with the Lamborghini doors on a DD and taking every bump at slow angel from body kit.

Great to hear, congrats.

I felt the same way when I was given a fair amount for what I wanted in the trade-in for my MX-5. Usually I don't experience as good of a deal compared to private-selling a vehicle (or better)... But this time I did.

Hope you enjoy your FR-S, and autocrossing it.

Omg going from a manual scion Tc to driving a v8 f150 with no power lock windows or even a cd player sucks. And the gas blows compared I can't wait to get the frs and give my dad his truck back lol. So I've been reading all the warranty issues and stuff people are having with trimming and vvti and chirp and all that with the cars and I'm trying to decide if I want to wait to get my frs or not. Also how long do u all think until they start fixing these issues before they ship the cars out or should I wait till 2014s come out and just save money till then?
