Just like the title states, post up your FR-S from when you got it, then post your recent picture from 1 year to the current day if past. I'll get it started.

Showroom floor, 7 miles on odometer:

This is when my dad surprised me, the night of 10/11/12

The next day--as you can see it still had all the plastic on it because my dad knew I didn't want anybody cleaning but me

Then this is the day (10/21/13) before we sold it. It had 500 miles on it!

Why did you sell? Your dad ate that loss

Because we were paying a little under $1k for insurance rated as a leisure vehicle at 1,000 miles/year. That would be fine with us, if we didn't have four other cars to pay insurance for. Also because of depreciation since the 2014 models came out and they were practically unchanged.

We sold it for $600 below the MSRP--which we paid--which was $2,400 over Blue Book Value.

Besides, we're looking to get another one next year.We felt it was better to sell now at a high price while we still can

looks like i'll have to go back to the same spot year after year.

1st photo was the 2nd day of ownership. 2nd photo is one year later - not much change on the outside but plenty of fiddling done under the bonnet and in the cabin.
