Traded in my MK6 GTI for the FRS!!
Well, as the title says I am a new owner of a WhiteOut FRS
 Wow is this car FUN!!!! I cannot wait for my first track day! (and yes the lack of torque is noticeable). I need to order toyota all weather matts, shark fin, toyota badges, arm rest and... I think that is all. Any recommendations on which company shark fin to buy? |

Welcome to the club.
However, I don't think I could ever give up the 2.0T if I had a car with it. I really love that engine. |

That TSI 2.0 is a great motor with a lot of INEXPENSIVE potential for power.
That being said, I was getting bored of just going fast in straight line, and by fast I mean going as fast as a stock GTI can go. In one night of hooning around the FRS has made me laugh and giggle like a little school girl. GTI never did that. |

GTI is great car, just boring. Very nice interior, refined and comfortable.

GTI's are nice, but you're gonna feel like you have something special now in your garage.
