kyc12340 Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) Yea, I know... but it's not that I don't like this car. my health is fucked and I might not be able to drive for the next few years... so I don't need Hater comments, or "I knew you were gonna sell it soon" comments.... So.. why I'm selling the car so soon. Explanation: 1. Recently, I went on 2month vacation to my home country(Korea). Since I had back/knee related pain, and my legs don't go straight, I decided to get checked up while I was visiting the family. Went through weeks of examinations involving MRIs, DNA testing, I was diagnosed with very early stage of Gout and Ankylosing Spondylitis . Therefore, I will be moving back to Korea this winter/early next year. 2. Serving Military is mandatory for Korean males, which I have delayed it until now because of school. I will probably be classified as an office worker because of my health issue, I won't be able to obtain a personal vehicle while serving. Either serving 2-3years or not, I will have to move back for my health treatment and no driving for me. All in all, Doctor told me to enjoy the time I have left until the treatment starts.. So I want to sell the FR-S and my gsxr600 to get an either comfortable yet fast cars, or go all out and get a very fast car until moving back.... FR-S is still very fun and nice, but coming from owning higher powered vehicles in the past, it is not for me at the moment if I only have few more months of driving privilege. Hope you guys understand my situation Details.. Raven black 6sp manual. 1300miles 35%tint. Price : 24150 There isn't even a KBB for this car yet, and when I tried to search on Autotrader, ebay, there's nearly none used ones... So my pricing is based on what the current FT86 members are selling similar mile cars for + What the brand new one costs.. This is an autotrader link within 300miles radius, only manual equipped FR-Ss http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/searchresults.xhtml?zip=43220&endYear=2013&modelCode1=SCIFRS&startYear=1981&makeCode1=SCION&transmissionCode=MAN&searchRadius=300&firstRecord=1&numRecords=50 the cheapest one I found was $24930 which are about 300 miles away from here... Also, on FT86club, another member is selling his Silver manual with 2000miles for 24200 firm... based on these two factors,, I would like to get 24150. If you are very serious enough, we can talk about saving both ways a bit more.. If you feel that the price is unfair and have a reasonable offer in mind, please let me know... Remember, if you order a new one, you might have to wait a little for the right color or have to allocate from a long distance. + all dealer fees etc. I will post up detailed pics later . for now http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/rr119/Yongchankim/frs/86f.jpg http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/rr119/Yongchankim/frs/86b.jpg http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/rr119/Yongchankim/frs/86c.jpg http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/rr119/Yongchankim/frs/20120703_142922.jpg http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/rr119/Yongchankim/frs/86a.jpg http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/rr119/Yongchankim/frs/86e.jpg http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/rr119/Yongchankim/frs/frs-6.jpg Edited September 2, 2012 by kyc12340 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AC66Bronco Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 As a fellow member with A.S. I know and feel your pain. Look into Humera. (yea that shit they advertise on tv) It is expensive as fuck and will lower your immune system but it also slows your body from fighting itself. For those that don't know what A.S. is. Think about having constant back and other joint pain and the pain only stops when your spine is solid bone. Good luck man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
