The dealership is a Five Axis dealer. They installed the entire kit, wheels, springs, clear bra, bespoke, HID's and some sticky tires to show how you can personalize the car. The owners son took the car to shows, it was a demo car. That's why it has the miles. Like I said I didn't pay 33k. It's funny how everyone sees the price and is blown away. Their are guys on this site with turbo kits, new paint ect. That adds up to more than what I payed. It has everything I wanted for less than I would of had to pay if I bought a stock FR-S.

congrats op on the new car. My local dealer had a whiteout with the five axis kit and i have to say pictures do it no justice. Much better looking kit in person.

Your link says $32,903. So how much did you pay?

It should be noted that the owner's son is the GM of the Toyota/Scion dealership and in his early 30's; not just some kid that just takes daddy's toys on the road. Nice guy despite his questionable politics(thinks he hit a homerun in life while starting out on 3rd base) and penchant to buy exotic cars after break ups(well, only once that I know of). Still, he's a nice guy and doesn't let that stuff show though.

Saw this one on Autotrader and it's nice - congrats on the purchase. Now if we could just get some summer weather here...

I agree it is a nice looking car. Whether the price is fair or not is entirely up to the buyer. Price and the labor to put this all together is justifiable.
I think the only negative will be on the back end when it is either sold or traded in.
If you do ever decide to sell it try your best to sell it privately. That way you maximize your return on investment. The reality is dealerships rarely care what has been added to a car regardless of whether it was installed by the end user or or the dealership.
Either way enjoy your car! It looks good
