Keep my box or get the FR-S

I am torn right now and need help

What is your opinion

Do I keep my box (with no car payment) and keep having fun with it or do I get the new FR-S when it arrives?

i would wait. save your car payment for a bit and let the bugs get worked out in the 1st FR-S then get one when there is more aftermarket support for it.

Is there a baby on the way?

If yes - Box.

If no - FR-S while you still can.

I'd say it depends on what you want to do... If you want to show and compete, get it first and start building of the bat... If for budget/fun/speed wait a bit for prices to drop and not pay the early adopter fee.

You have the connections and getting in early may even save if you can pick up a sponsor or two...

With the amount of attention this car has been getting, I'd figure it'll be hard competition.... Between it and the BRZ, we are going to probably have a ton of guys modding and competing and some decent money getting thrown into them.

The FRS is the first car I've been tempted to build since back in the day.
