I am a bit sad I didn't get Ultramarine, but I really do like asphalt. I parked it right next to my girlfriend's tC to compare the colors and it is WAY darker than hers.
I took it for tint this morning. Suntek Carbon 18%. Brought it home and washed it. I started drying and the surface felt like sandpaper on my waffle towel, so I busted out the clay and wax and gave it a good once over.

An FR-S is going to be my graduation present to myself when I hopefully land a cozy engineering job with my ME degree. I cannot wait.

IDK ... for the money, I think I'd rather buy a used NSX and cruise for chicks while the little women (and she IS little) is at work .... was that out-loud? Uh ... I mean ...
I say this as I literally watch her write out addresses on the wedding invitations .... yeah, there's a special spot for me in hell ...

How "planted" does it feel through the turns?
taking too long to mod since '09June '12 COTM'95 AT200
It feels very planted - even for having sh*tty Prius tires on it. A couple of the other FRS at the show today had some simple modifications like catback exhausts, lightweight crank pulleys, strut bars, etc. It was nice to chat with the guys about the car, and answer questions for all of the looky-lous.
Ended up winning awards:
- PSTOC lifetime achievement award for my club contributions
And the following for the MR2:
- "Lenny likes" award (Thanks Lenny!)
- PSTOC Choice award

Ordered a few things today:
- Grimmspeed front license plate relocation kit
- Perrin 2" Shorty antenna
- Cusco front strut brace
ah sh*t... let the modding begin...

no replacement filter? stock airbox? and no sound tube delete?
i dont know how i like that
2015 Subaru WRX. World Rally Blue/Black2001 Honda S2000. Spa Yellow/Black
Replacement filter yes.
Stock airbox yes.
sound tube delete is cosmetic. Put a plug in it if you don't like it. I like hearing it.

2.44hp and 1.38 ft lb torque to the wheels, seems legit.

Most of the vendors on the FRS/BRZ forums will reset the ECU prior to re-dynoing so the numbers get inflated. My numbers are without a break in-between runs short of the 2 minutes it took to install the new piping and filter.
5000 rpms and up....
Here are my 4th gear runs:

nice mods, will be following, unfortunately wont mod the car for a while, like it as is.
If they push out a convertible, i may end up getting it.

I read somewhere that the platform could accommodate a convertible. Maybe if they continue to sell really well there'll be a convertible along with one that has the WRX STI engine.

Wishful thinking, but won't happen. No EJ will come in these.

jesus...hardly makes more tq than the 5s.
what a downer.
epic fail.

More torque would be nice, but it does fine for only weighing ~20lbs more than a Celica GT. (2580lbs to 2600lbs)
FR-S P/W ratio: .076
Celica P/W ratio: .052
Nothing stellar by any means, but a difference. Plus the 5S is made for low end torque. You're comparing apples to oranges here.

But the Scion site says it weighs 2,758 with the manual.
