Financed + Mods. - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hello,

Out of curiousity and "minor dilemmas" regarding this situation.

I'd like to know the amount of people who are financing their FR-S/BRZ/Whatever vehicle you own. And are doing anything from minor modifications (JDM sidemarks, sharkfin antenna, etc.) to extensive modifications (full header-back exhaust, FI, etc.).

kthxbye!

You can still finance and mod. Its technically your car when you finance, lease, no, but you can mod that too as long as its stock if you choose to return it. But nearly anything can be returned to stock unless cutting is involved... rocket bunny *cough*

I finance through my bank, not Toyota, I have an Invidia front pipe, Greddy cat back, AEM intake, changed out the radiator hoses, and done a bunch of minor stuff, blacked out headlights, plasti-dipped badges, Cusco strut tower brace. The finance company doesn't care its Toyota when you take the car in for service that will bite you.

I'm financing and slowly going to be doing mod.

finance = you own the car = do what you want to it(if worries about voiding warranty, ask your dealer) and leasing = renting = you can mod with limits and will need to return to stock upon return/end of lease

I am financing. Just got the car two weeks ago. Have clear corners coming, wheels, coilovers, exhaust. Just the basics. No forced induction or anything for a while though.

I think I'm the only FRS owner who is keeping their car stock.

I think the op is trying to get at why are you spending money on a car you do not own. Yes if you finance the bank owns your car until you pay off the loan.

I finance and since i cant run summer tires in winter i bought wheels and tires. Im also taking it to the track this year. Becausevi financd i wss also able to contribute money to long term investment. Sure it may be safer to buy cash but you know that popular phrase, yolo. Just be careful with your debts. If i lost my job today i have enouh to pay off my car.
