I’m sure I can’t be the only one that prefers a turn key start...
I prefer having a key all day than keyless
Key all the way
It makes you feel more involved.
@@swololikesolo1625 definitely yeah
Push to start is easier to steel
Watching in 2022 and almost cried when i seen the gas prices…
Bruh for real I was checking the comments tweakin wondering how his gas so cheap
Looking at getting a 2016 FRS with 35k miles and this video was pretty helpful! Still a beautiful car to this day
I've been looking at getting a scion for a while now just as a secondary kind of project/fun car and I can't thank you enough for the specifics of this review especially the recall bit, I did not know about that!
Glad to C u back on the air! Love those lights in headliner
I used to own a 2013 frs, bought it brand new at the time, I used to love the car! I owned it for 3 years never had any real big issues with it, the only think I had done to it was the recall you mentioned. The car wasn't fast but it wasn't a total slouch either! Loved the handling, the way it drove it was so much fun! Now I wish I have that car again! The only reason I got rid of it, was because living in Chicago at the time the winter wasn't the weather to be driving around in it, I almost killed myself a few times! So the car had to spend the winter months in the garage! So the only time I drove it was in the summer months. Now that I live in Arizona, im looking for another one like the one I used to own! Mine was midnight blue with the six speed manual, and that's the one I want back again if I can find one. Of course its gotta have low mileage and the recall done. Nice review man! Enjoy your awesome car! Is a beauty!👌😎👍
yo I saw you driving the other day, sounded good
Crazy how gas is 4.788 now , great video brah
Thats what i was thinking! Lol , $90 fill up on v8
Nice car and great review man! I am thinking about picking one up as my first daily driver!
Hey AJ! haven't seen you for a while buddy, hope everything is ok with you and your family. Looking forward to some more exciting videos in the future. Car looks great, love the hood. Keep smiling man, all this nonsense can't last forever. 😎💖🙏👍
My car is currently at 85,000 miles. It's in the shop right now getting the clutch, transmission and brake system check up. Priority maintenance matters! Mine is a 2013, only "modification " I've done was a simple muffler delete.
Does he have stars on his roof? I would liked to hear more about his upgrades he’s done.
did you find out where to find the product?
@@giovannisangiacomo9135 just search up fiber optic lights on amazon and do it yourself or take it to a shop it'll be costly if u take it to a shop but doing it yourself could cost less than 100
@@i_ate_ur_fish how much would a shop be?
@@reekrodriqguez6552 Probably somewhere around $1500-2000, they have to remove all the parts till they reach the headliner, reroute cables, push in each fiber optic cable by hand, etc. so yeah.
when the car is done you should do a 10 minute start to finish video of the progress
This is one of my dream cars🔥🤔
why..
Don’t get this car pls
Ong
gay
Profission why not?
This might be my first ever car, I’m so excited
@Brandon G Nice! Not a bad deal I’d say. And sadly I did not buy because getting my license was delayed because I moved from state to state
@Brandon G oh dang that kinda sucks:( Then I guess the search is still on! Lol. Also, I think I may be getting a ford focus st now I’ve been loving them the last few minths
Yeah if you want one with out any defects being used its gonna be 18,000 - 22,000. If your lucky maybe a little lower. Im buying mine now in perfect condition with 90k miles for 18k. I literally couldnt find one cheaper and I dont buy from private sellers since ive been fucked over in the past from doing private sales.
@@Hello-or8gg what year?
My dream car man!
I love my frs. My dad got it for me 2 months after I got my license and so as a student driver it is very reliable and easy to manage. My only complaint is the arm rest lol
Your dad's the man. My parents got me a beater for my first car. Nothing worse then stressing about your car breaking everywhere you go
Evan Wilson you will get a better car bro watch
@@evanwilson9505 i mean you lucky that your parents even bought you a car. A lot of parents make the kids work for it
Luke0635 yeah. I got a job and have 7000 saved up rn and my parents will pay the rest. I’m gonna get a 2013 one most likely
Alex Riley yo I wouldn’t recommend getting a 2013, there’s a recall for the valve spring and it’s not a very good idea to risk it, go for 2014+
I love it I hope to get one soon :)
1.72 a gallon 😂 my have times changed in a couple of years !!
Foreal take me back 🤣
Notification gang😤
This video is awesome. Thank you for the help. I am currently saving up and posibly am going to get a Fr s as my first car. I am new to the car community and I'm not sure on what modifications I want to use. Does your spoiler still allow you to open your trunk?
wow 18$ for a full tank…take me back
18 dollars for a full tank sounds so good right now man
The exhaust sounded really good, did you run the car to match those parts at the time of recording this video?
$18 for a full tank of gas hits different in 2022
Seeing those gas prices hurt.
damn it hurt.
7:18
Even if u didn’t come here for this you’ll still be happy
Sounds so good
Can u plssss do ur model and upgrades done to it I love its look
I don't know over there in the US, but here in the UK, the BRZ is cheaper to insure than the equivilant GT86.
I guess I do need one
“Push to start, but, I’m sure if I bought a newer model they’d have it..”
Test drove a 2020 Toyota 86 today and can confirm you gotta crank that bitch
The door closing is also really annoying when your in a tight garage trying to get out.
do you have the exhaust with the single layer tips?
Hahaha, complaining abt gas at 1.72.
Try 3+ dollars.
He wasn’t complaining about them he was amazed at how low they were..??
I’m shitty my tank cost hella
Seen it at 4.35 here in SoCal lmao
@@miguelfragoso7023 that’s basically the usual cost in SoCal
Different areas have different prices for a reason gas would be more expensive in Cali because the pay is much higher there to compensate for the cost of living
Nice taillights
Is your FRS still running good after the recall fix are did the Valve Springs fell again.
ohhh nooo i want to buy your car!
You was listening to lil uzi I seen that 😂😂🔥
Honestly not to sound dumb but i have a 2000 Honda Accord it's the first car I've ever owned and unfortunately it ran it's course the transmission is starting to give me issues. I'm looking for a newer car as my daily driver and want something fun so i can do my own modifications, my uncle recommended me this car or the scion tc. Unfortunately I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to cars could you tell me what the purpose of the recall is for?
Would you recommend avoiding the 2013 if possible ? :/ there’s a handful of 2013s in my area but it seems none or few of them got their recall done. And you mentioned it could either be completely fixed or it could mess up your car
I would completely avoid it tbh. It’s a hit or miss with the engine blowing up so it’s best to avoid it. 2014s also had some problems with the coil packs and TOB for the manual. 2015+ would be my pick.
Could always take it to the dealership and they are required to fix the problem associated with the recall
@@JustAnotherYTer do you know if you get one imported, would your local Toyota dealership still be required to do the recall?

@@abdullahqaiser6050 Sorry I am not sure about importing one
Bro gets some wheels, wheels be4 hood
Always
That’s facts. I cringed so hard.
Where can i get those stars on his roof?
Does the car come with a overhead sunglass area? Above the rear view mirror
Great vid. Just bought a BRZ. Love it so far. Just a fun ride. But loud road noise. $46 to fill up as opposed to 18 4 years ago. Good grief! And c’mon maan. Who wears gloves gazing up their vehicles? Should be ashamed of yourself
im confuse so where do u rest ur elbow at?
or u drive with two hands
Just curious, how much does it cost to fill her up in 2022?
should i finance this car i just got my license and ive always wanted this car just kind of iffy on the rear seats im 6 foot 2 but most of my friends are pretty short
Back seats it’s only for kids..adults don’t fit at all in the back very uncomfortable...i own one mines white pearl
How do you have those Star lights on the ceiling, looks like the rolls Royce phantom
It looks girly 😂🤣
Sounds very droney in there
What engine you got on it?
seeing these gas prices in 2024 is crazy
So how do you get into the trunk?
Found a 2013 Scion FRS 44k miles what modifications would you recommend to boost the car to 300 HP?
injectors, cold air intake, exhaust, and stage 1 tune, u can up to even bigger injectors if u put in an aftermarket fuel pump but that’s kinda expensive
@@higoodbye3495 how much would all this cost and would I need to rebuild anything I know with turbo kits and superchargers most people tell me to rebuild the trans
@@bozo2762 why is the fbi asking 😐
Wrong Thinking! I own a 2016 FR-S and I just dyno'd it on E85 Stage 2+ and it went from 173hp at the wheel to 209hp at the wheel! That amount of horsepower makes the world of difference in this little go kart from hell when made fast.
You will never be straight line fast, the car is made for cornering drifting and the track.
I'm running
- UEL or EL Header
- Intake
- Frontpipe/Overpipe
- Catback Exhaust
- OFT 2.0 Stage 2+ E85
its gonna be expensive but just get supercharger stage 1 kit and u should be close to 300
Any link to the wing? Have a red 2013 frs
Who got you the best insurance?
4 years ago and 1 year anniversary, so 5 years ago, gas was under $2/gal?! damn!
18!!!!! Dollars!!!! Who ever watching this in 2022 knows gas is highhhhh
How does it do with gas ? Is it bad or good
It’s alright. Depends on how heavy your foot is lol
what type of exhaust did you get 🫦
Ayo how did u get the stars in the roof?
Love the car BUT side of yo bumper is coming off 👀
How do like it would you rather that or a 2020 Supra
I am sure he would agree that a Supra its bette but the difference its in the budget a supra is 50k plus and there no space on the back and on these one theres barely space but there is.
The gas locking lever inside is a security issue not to have. My 2020 Mustang GT u just push the door and it opens no locking cap is even possible. I bought what Ford claimed was the locking cap. It's basically a bottle cap size size and shape peice of plastic with a ancient lock style Design that's basically worthless and hard to put on and take off every time. It doesn't hinge and it's so small it gets lost easily.
18$ for a full tank.... I wish. My BRZ takes about 40$ in June 2021
How about now? Gas is 4$ a gallon lmao fuuuuck what I'd do to go back
@@JareBareXP 65$ is what I'm paying now, shit is crazy
What wing is that?
Idk where you live but I definitely gotta move there if gas is only $1
For 2013 models what happens if the recall is done?? Shouldn’t there be no issues once fixed?
When the recall is done your car should run fine, many people that get the recall done have their car run fine after.
You hear all these problems about the engine dying again, but that was due to the first few service bulletins which indicated the uses of heaps of silicon gasket, this was rectified and less silicon was used and you don’t see them fail anymore.
My advice do your research on which dealerships around you have the best success rates with the recall then make your decision.
I knew it was going to be an automatic based on the mods shown in the thumbnail.
As long as u look cool I guess.
I like your videos man but you shouldn't drive while filming with the camera in your hand. Be safe out there.
The engine started knocking and crapped out in Mine that I bought in the middle of May a month later on June 23rd :( The extended warranty is getting me a new engine and labor payed for but they been jerking me around for a whole month and I been paying uber and lyft to get to work everyday in LA where its $$$$$$ :( cant wait to have my new car back in driving shape.
She had the recall done but it was done not how it should before I even bought it.
What year and mileage?
I’m trying to get rid of my 2016 frs, I want that American muscle v8 dodge challenger srt
What are you selling it for?? Im looking for one
Jerry Domingo I’m willing to negotiate, I’m asking 15k, it’s got 36k in miles
@@lariosmendoza do you have an insta or something so we can talk. Important question tho, is it manual?
Jerry Domingo yes sir! And no it’s an automatic
Whats your ig?
Why does it look like the trunk can’t open with that spoiler
What gas did you put in it
How do you open trunk
This is my dream car would it be a good first?
Would be an excellent first car. I’m getting this as my first car
Got it as my second car lol it’s awesome so far but it’s only been a month lol
What websites should I looks to find these cars
Car Gurus is where i found mine
Watching this in 2022 and 18 dollars for gas that’s crazy
I almost cried when I saw the automatic shifter. I even subscribed to you today bro! Why would you break my heart like that? Why?!😭 Love the videos though
bro literally who cares
I have a auto cuz I live in a city and its my daily. I know how to drive manual but if I had to do that every day I'd off myself.
Same 😭 manual is the only way. Idc about “ I live in the city” faceass.
Miguel Fragoso aaah we found the elitist
Automatic or manual who cares..same hp and slow as f..
living in 2021 where the heck do you get gas for 1.70 a gallon
I really dont get people who get the automatic
Try living in a city bro even my friend who drove manual gave it up after a couple years with his wrx
@@ordonezelvin I drive a manual and live in the city, I dont see the problem?
Used to have a 15 FRS automatic that I bought it for cheap at the auction I’ll always be a manual guy through and through but the 6 Speed is pretty decent not as bad as I expected and actually takes a ton more abuse especially if you add supercharger or turbo and less bs issues than the manual the manual on this is not as good as the Honda’s.
I'm thinking bout buying one when I turn 16 or 17
Same
he's listening to uzi :p
I’m 6’2 do you think I could fit in one of these
I'm 6'4 and I fit just fine
what would the insurance ballpark be for a teen driver?
mine is like 130 a month
My son is 16 and his insurance is $370 a month for this car
$18 for a full tank?! Here in the UK a full tank for my BRZ is £80!!
I thought that was 1.7 per liter not gallon, how are you getting $1.7 for a gallon of 93
Me seeing this in ca in 2022 where premium is $6 a gallon minimum 😞
i want a frs so bad
My 2008 scion Tc does that door thing it's annoying as hell
Bro, I live in Cali and gas is $7.00 per gallon :/
THOSE GAS PRICES
1.72 a gallon
Bro.. if you think $1.72 is alot. Try $3.20 here in California. /:
4 NYC lol
@@crillznhchkoodsta4337 but you guys have taxi's driving you everywhere.
Are you.....are you jake gyllenhaal?😂
bro 1.79 for premium i wish
"you can get premium for $1.72" WOW
Gas at 1.72👀 2 years ago
Brooo why that wing is not a formula 1 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 myyyy mannnnnn
Im looking into getting an frs and was wondering if it is worth getting a manual if possible? do you think the auto is good enough?
Depends. Do you live in a city? Do you know how to drive manual? I love my stick shift, it’s the funnest thing ever. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of it
@@2liter I don't know how to drive stick but am not afraid to learn. I live in the suburbs
I got mine a week ago an learned stick in a day
I have a auto but I would prefer a manual. Can’t complain though.
Get a manual. It’s the only way with this car. Make sure to come back to this comment and thank me :)
To fill my 86 it’s like 30-40$
California?
