Default Bumps in the road

Hi Guys,

I am picking up my FRS next Thursday from the garage so will post pics of it next week.

Just wondering how comfortable the ride is....Can you feel every bump that you go over or is it a smooth ride?

I really cannot wait to pick it up!!

It's not as soft as a subaru and not as hard as an evo it's just perfect.

Glad to hear that! I never realised that the FRS was close to the Subaru in performance either!
Even if someone says that the FRS is like driving an elephant up a mountain I think I wiould still buy it!!!

I have eaten a fair few scoobys and evo's in mine. The thing i find with the evo and scooby is the focus rs is quicker at high speed.

My old man had a P1 and my focus rs would sit on his bumper round any back lane and after 100mph it was see you later daddy.


Cheers,

Jim

Will the standard FRS do a scooby? I asked someone a question about the DV you get on the FRS, I test drove it and heard the sweet sound I have wanted to hear in my car since I was allowed on the roads!! Someone said that you get a standard DV on the FRS which does NOT make a noise but I am sure I heard the air coming out whilst driving it. Does that mean the guy before me has had 1 fitted? HELP!!

It does make some sound but it's not as a baileys one would sound....

If your taking wrx scooby 215bhp then you will be neck and neck.

Moded and take the lot on
