Maybe I can pick one up that has had the coal bunny kit and yellow lanterns removed, fix it back up to original and get it back on the road for cheap.

Only if it was hit hard enough to flip the truck over!

I was just lamenting to MomHawk this past weekend that I must be truly getting old in that I would seriously consider purchasing a Cadillac if we needed a larger car. Of course, it might have something to do with the specs on these babies...this is NOT my Father's Cadillac
I had an Uncle that purchased an ATS and another Uncle that purchased a Camaro SS within the last year, both cars brand new. They were both raised as GM guys as their grandfather worked for GM around the 30's.

Both cars will have been sold within six months and by the end of this year they will likely both have Miata's (one already does (NB), the second uncle is currently searching).

They both have multiple Grandchildren each and have retired. I can cram lots of overused sayings to the end of this story but I'll leave that up to the reader to decide.



Edit: Fucking baby boomers and their disposable income.

Full Retard Systems Tuning will be more than happy to sell you a rivet kit and all the tools you need to pop any number of rivets into the body of your FR-S/BRZ for the "fully tuned" look. We also sell Dremel attachments that will allow you to cut precise gouges into your car body which you can then follow with our custom rivets to give you that "Full Retard" look. Take your stock FR-S from boring to the best-in-show by popping a few hundred rivets into the body. You will be the center of attention, with your fellow owners demanding to know how you made your car "Fresh As Fuck". You can tell them to "always go Full Retard" with Full Retard Systems Tuning, your one and only source for a full-retard FR-S.
