I just purchased a Whiteout one on Tuesday. We road tripped it to Charleston this weekend to edge a little closer to the 1,000 mile break in period. I think I'm about 200 miles away from really opening it up.

Love the car so far. Just a few small changes, put in a drop-in air filter, ordered a shark fin, and ordered some clear JDM markers.

Well, I've been looking at this car for the past few months now and I finally decided I wanted it.
I am a long time Honda owner but I decided that new Hondas suck!
I ordered a Sc10n series FR-S last week ($200 down got it ordered)
I can't wait for it to get here. Already got another $1300 saved up for a big down payment.
I hope this car is everything I want it to be, and I hope it comes without some of the issues i've been seeing.

Anyway, I've already planned to strap a supercharger on this car so be on the lookout for that thread in a few months.

Hi everyone, well I finally have my very own! I have waited for this car for way too long but now its mine! Picked her up tonight and had lines on my ace when I got in from smiling the whole ride home. I would really like to thank everyone who contributes to this site, I have spent many hours reading and rereading over all of the highly informative posts. Now that I too am an owner I hope that I can contribute to the overall exchange of information and discussion as well. Thanks again everyone, I'm looking forward to the next stage of the the adventure; ownership!

I'm new here and about to be the proud owner of a raven FR-S manual.
Long story short (the long story I posted in another thread), due to life situation changes, I am downsizing from my Camaro SS to an FR-S. The car is supposed to arrive on Thursday, and unless the dealership tries some last minute tricks to jack the price up, I will take possession that day.

For perspective, here are some of my previous cars:
1981 Toyota Corolla 1.8 SR-5 (bored, stroked, cam'ed, dual weber carbs. My father owns it now)
1985 Toyota Corolla GT-S (sold)
1989 Mazda RX-7 TurboII (I would never have sold this car if I had the choice. It made a little over 300 to the rear wheels. However, it was totaled by an older woman. My car was parked. She crashed into the passenger side)
1989 Toyota Corolla SR5 (extremely faithful daily driver. Once again, sold to a family member)
2013 Camaro 1SS, dual-mode exhaust option (great performance for the price, and the Zeta-II platform actually handles great with a couple mods, as evidenced with the 1LE)

I'll be happy to be back in a little Toyota again, but i do wish it was under different circumstances. Regardless, I'm glad to have found this forum, and I have been reading up on plenty of things!

Hi! As some of you could tell from my name, I'm from soCal. I drive a white Scion FR-S with a 6mt and a few mods. My previous ride was a grey 2010 Scion tC with an automatic, so the jump was quite a big one.

Getting delivery of my new baby tomorrow after having an original '05 tC (first one sold in Winston Salem at the time) for all these years. Kinda sucks working overnight since it just prolongs everything until tomorrow instead of being able to sleep it all away... GAH!

I got to drive an auto FRS at the Atlanta auto show a few months ago and it was a blast. I've decided to get a BRZ but have to get rid of my cars first. The hardest part about getting a brz/frs is resisting the urge to super or turbocharge it!
