I released an FR-S into the wild!

So I got myself on Argento FR-S from Power Toyota Irvine yesterday! A great buying experience, and a far cry from what I went through on saturday trying to get one from Riverside Toyota. Never, never go to Riverside!

So its now home with about 80 miles on it...I'm looking forward to taking it for a little afternoon spin on Mt. Baldy Rd...which is literally, in my backyard (ok, its on the otherside of the fence)

I come from a long long of fairly powerful cars...but switching to this is really yielding more fun in the form of communication with the car & the road. What a blast this thing is to drive.

Congrats! We just had a meet with some OC/LA owners this past Friday and we were talking about how the only colors missing at the meet were Argento and Hot Lava. You better make it out to the next meet :P

All stock, but with the leather. I had to haggle with them for queit a while on the price of the leather...but it wound up being a battle for the price of my trade in!

I'm glad to hear you were able to get one.

Go take it back to Claremont Toyota and do a burn out in front
of the douchey salespeople while screaming, "Oh baby, I got it without paying
your 5K markup for "upgraded wheels!'
