    Exactly.

    I'd love a car with a removable roof. Given that the FR-S/BRZ is a little lower on power than I'd like it to be (given that I've got a ton of power in my Subaru), a removable roof would seal the deal for buying it. As a fixed roof it's not as appealing to me to have to trade my Subaru.

    Had a issue with one wheel catching a piece of ice and peeling some of the plasti dip so today I peeled the wheels.. Turns out there not really gold, someone spray painted them gold and there is gloss black under that, so I think ill pop them off soon and get them sand blasted and power coated. I heated up my garage and dipped my factory wheels with 5 coats, looks soo much better imo :D. Will toss them back on tomorrow or Monday.

    Toyota has there part in the car as well as Subaru, but both the scion frs and brz are built in the same factory which is primarily owned by Subaru.
