Tealsupra Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) Hey guys usually a lurker on here and with my supra being on hiatus for the winter I havemt had much motive to get on here. Anyways got a nice new daily 2014 Scion FR-S in the whiteout with the auto trans. Picked the auto cause I usually end up in rush hour traffic and the stick in my old daily got old real fast. Not looking to do to many mods to this car. Thinking if doing the H1 mini projectors from The Retrofit Source to replace the halogen projectors and do some audio stuff on the inside. Cars slow but wasnt looking for a fast car as that is what Im building my supra to be. The handling is what I was interested in. Anyways blah blah blah here are the pics. Enjoy http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/02/ahe8y9ej.jpg http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/02/bu3evyha.jpg http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/02/ame3uty8.jpg http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/02/ysena6yp.jpg http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/02/7equ5yse.jpg Edited January 2, 2014 by Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geeesammy Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 Look, another GT86 chassis on CR... SURPRISE!! But I loved riding in this thing today. Compared to your car it doesn't have much, but it still will put you back in the seat. The flappy paddles look fun, and they are a lot more responsive than I expected. Look forward to this at AutoX at some point! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Brian Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Worst traffic in the world still isn't worth settling for an automatic in a sports car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigOxley Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 I daily a white auto FRS also. My only complaint is crawling to get out of it. Girlfriend complains about the ride quality, and she thinks the car is too stiff too. Bazinga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is pretty low and still has to much wheel gap for my taste lol. One more thing is that ive noticed condensation in the tail lights. Looks like ill be getting these before long http:// http://gasketninja.com since the OE ones are trash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FourString Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Nice car. I wouldn't personally have picked the auto either, but it's good for what you're using it for I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Brian Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 I just don't understand why you bought a stiff lightweight rwd uncomfortable racecar as a daily driver in Ohio but were only concerned about having to shift your own gears, that's all.

Im sorry :/ but most racecars are autos these days so I guess you are right it is a racecar then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImUrOBGYN Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Nice grab, man. I know Norm (Littleguy) above has expressed his interest in an auto FRS for a daily in Houston. I'm sure he'd get white, as well. I'm interested in a manual as a fun car and possibly getting rid of my Supra. My daily driver is a Vibe GT and rowing the 6 in traffic is no bother to me. Hell, I dd a manual through LA and Orange County traffic for years. Still, the idea of the flappy is cool and I'd love to try one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
