I’m interested in this Scion FRS for sale obscenely below book value. I k now it is rough (with a bad hit to the quarter panel, and aw ful wheels), but I want to know if it is basically solid mechanically/rust/etc. wise before I plunk down any cash.

The plan is to just have dumb fun with it, but I don’t want to buy something that is ready to blow up. Modifying is more what I want vs c onstant repairs.

How do you plan on having dumb fun with autotragic FRS?

Don’t go up that way much anymore, don’t miss it either... That being said, NC dealer tag means it might not be totally rusty.

It’s not a hideous drive, probably 4.5-5ish hours from where you are in RI. Just go to Pat’s Pizza if the car is garbage and call it good.

There’s a good YouTube channel called EatSleepDrive. He has a higher mileage BRZ or FRS that is not great cosmetically. He loves that he doesn’t have to worry about it.

Sold in Jacksonville, NC. Home the 2nd Marine Division. I suspect a history of being run hard and put up wet by a young Marine with a paycheck and no common sense. The Carfax (at the linked website) indicates it was registered in Maine and then still serviced in NC for a couple years before going back to Maine. (Yup a military car).

I think this is your car: (Note the “must be towed”).
