Took it autocrossing the next day:



Best shot so far but more to come:

 

A Few things.

Gas Light Comes on at around when there is about 2 gallons left (Tank capacity is 13.2).


Backseats are 100% useless and cargo capacity cannot fit a party sized cooler full of beer(haha).



Seats are excellent how ever it sucks it looses memory every time it moves it to access the rear.


On our way home in the evening after work we had massive downpour and flooding in our area and the car handled it like a champ with water almost coming up to the front end!




Autocrossing: Autocrossed it less than 24 hours after we got the vehicle (while still staying under 4k Rpms, setup the shift light to light up at 4k rpms) and still keeping up with Subaru STI's very easily timing wise. When this thing goes full throttle I am sure there will be no contest.


Deer Incident: did a relay walk for cancer from 6pm to about 3am( went until 6am but was too tired) and on my way home from leesburg, VA to Columbia, MD on 267 of VA a deer jumped in front of us. Keep in mind I had a whole cooler full of beer behind my seat and so took super evasive actions at around 75mph.

Literally going from 1 lane to 2 lanes over (no cars were beside me) I know the general rule of thumb is to not turn because thats how crashes occur but I was not going to even come close to that deer with my car less than 48 hours old!

So evasive action at 75mph the car was violently shocked and it felt very sudden and the chassis was definitely upset but it handled it all like a champ, the electronic systems kept Us in a straight general direction and MAN I was impressed. Dodged the deer and pulled over 1/2 mile later after I stopped shaking from the sudden shock and went out to check the car

Not a scratch! The car has your back in evasive action!

 

I was thinking yesterday, I wonder when the first frs will be wrecked. Glad it wasn't you.

 

The frs looks pretty sweet... wow!

 

how did the car perform on the OEM tires?...I picked up my hot lava 6mt saturday and plan on going to an autocross in my area (Harrisburg PA) in 2 weeks.

 

Looks good Congrats, I just pick up mines this past Saturday, how do you like it so fare

 

Welcome back, guys!
Congrats!

 

cant believe you took it auto-x right away

 

i can't believe you complained about someone taking a car autocrossing right away.

 

So no Ppl will fit in the rear

 

not complaining, just surprised. the car is made for us car enthusits to enjoy

 

2 words heck no, you can put a car seat in the rear tho lol

 

I want the FR-S!!

 

After seeing the BRZ up close last night...I rather have the BRZ...Minus the Fugly spoiler.

 

good job on the white man thats the color i had originally ordered. but three weeks after i ordered mine i called the dealer and they had the one i have now. i just couldnt wait any longer so i picked mine up. took mine to the mountains last night to test out the suspension and your right the car handles like a dream. good purchase
