Thanks for posting up pics - that is a very nice color & glad to see some pics other than what's in the magazines / press kits.
I am definitely looking at the FR-S / BRZ as my next car, but it will probably be at another year or more - don't want another car payment yet. I'd also like to see if any teething problems develop, esp manual transmission or electrical issues.

Thanks for all compliments. Whoever want a true sport coupe beside a luxury family sedan this is it - The 86 Hachi Roku ! Believe me. I have driven and test drove about 20 cars from the span 2008 to 2012 and this agile light weight sport car will blow all the affordable car on the market today out the water in "STEERING & HANDLING" .

The GT 86 is selling like hot cakes all over the world. Just 10 came to the dealership here and within 2 days all 10 were sold . WHAAAT ?? The GT-86 definitely has a cult following.

Nice rides.
I would like to point out a few things.
1. I thought the car is known as a Scion FR-S in the US / Canada?
2. Did you switch out the emblem? :P
3. I watched a video of the FR-S and saw the interior and the guy who reviewed the video said the interior was ULTRA ghetto. LOOOOOOOL.

Besides the ultra ghetto system inside of the car, the car looks really bad *** outside. Although I'm leaning towards the BRZ.
CONGRATS ON THE PURCHASE THOUGH!

All Toyo & GT badges is available orders at scion parts department. The mod is the fun factor of this car. The car look very nice & sporty interior like the classic in the 80' porsche era. You want a real simple and less electronic as much as possible for the sport car. User will mod the way they want it. ( The aside IS will be luxury ammernities car)

It might not be the case right now. After you put both of your hands and fingers on the red stichy steering wheel, fingering massages around the steering, start the engine slap the pedal for fews 4k rev, rolled it out of your driveway .. OMG , the 350 will be in history. My 350 may not last for long in my mind just b/c of this crazy 86. My wife will be pissed if I let go my 350 just like that. I've been looking out the window ... sleepless

Yes, that is it only the last 2 items. The radio is double din ez swap w/ any latest top notch Alpine nav or kenwood nav. The airbag "86" logo badges also already available at dealer for ordering. I'm waiting for more aftermarket stuff. The car is just too new for the aftermarket product available and have competive in pricing.
