Default Newbie questions to a 2014 Scion FRS

Ever since I was 17 I wanted a FRS, I just like the look of it and how it feels to drive one. (Test drive my cousins for 15mins) It was amazing. Although I don't drive stick shift, I can if I need to be, but since I'm a casual person, I much rather prefer Auto. In 2 weeks I will get my final paycheck to finally have enough to secure a 2014 Scion FRS.

I have only a few questions.

I always wanted my Exhaust to make loud noise/sound while I drive the car, can I still do that with a automatic transmission?

I might save up again to get a Wide Body kit, which do you recommend?

Can auto transmission not install mods?

Thank you for answering my newbie questions!

Lol...young kids now a days...

Autos can be just as loud and can be modded similarly. Some of the fastest Supras are built automatic.

I wouldn't mess with a wide body kit, takes away from the stock lines...

what do you mean by taking away from the stock lines?

The naturally body lines of the car. How the car flows. How the lines of the car flows. It's a dog. It's a slow azz car, but man does it look good, and any additional body junk you add will take away from how good it really looks. Especially if you lower that sumb.tch, it'll look damn sexy.

1. Stay away from exhaust mods. Cat delete and done.
2. Stay away from Widebody kits and/or after market Body kits. It's a good looking car the way it is. anything else takes away from the hard work the designers and engineers have in it.
3. Auto is just fine to Modify. It is going to be considerably slower then standard. but an intake and that's about it.
4. Listen to you elders, we've been there, done that.

I would listen, but I want to put a Rocket Bunny kit onto it, been told here not too, but I've already bought the kit with this month's pay check. I just need a mechanic to put it in for me.

I do want a better exhaust sound though...
