Useless FR-S exposure.

I work inside a Sears Auto Center and the other day one of the CSA's threw their new catalog on my counter and asked me to look at the stupid car they put on the front...







lol, knowing I drive the FR-S this was humourus. I'd never buy wheels from sears but I'd thought I'd share this.

Also, one of my company's Yaris cars came in the other day and I noticed that the head unit would have looked great inside the FR-S as apposed to the scion one.

Well...it boosts the Hype on the market of these cars. I am glad that I dont have to see a FWD Civic SI every magazine now.

I actually really like the base head unit. It looks like something from a 90's Blaupunkt catalog, but that's perfect. 90's throwback stereo for a 90's throwback car.

As a graphic designer, corporate probably don't give a shit, the graphic guy probably choose cars that he liked.

That's what I do

But I'm sure some other idiot with poor taste would, now that the FR-S on the front cover.
