    Mine will probably be to upgrade the audio system. I was in the process of putting an SQ system in my tC, but will put that on hold until I decide on the FR-S.

    was said somewhere, once the car is lowered by 1" it will be the claimed super low center of gravity

    I'm with you on that. Although the door stabilizer sounds interesting I wonder why they don't make it standard. The tower bar may be a good option. Also I'm hoping for a decent aftermarket option, similar to the Subaru BRZ "vent" for the front fenders. The FRS style looks too rice to me.

    If I wanted a daily street commuter I'd get at least a cold air intake w/ hydroshield and a quite exhaust. Coilovers for street and better rims and tires.

    I hate untinted cars so I'd prob tint the car as well.

    I'll be looking for a decent replacement for the fender inserts. The Scion version is too rice / tacky. I rather like the Subaru version better. Hopefully a 3rd party will make a carbon fiber vent type insert.

    Tires first. Then suspension related items to make the handling even better. I will then start to look towards intake and exhaust.

    Stock is amazing already. I don't really like the TRD body kit. I have to see what else is out there first (maybe Five-Axis?).
    The first thing I would mod is:
    -TRD suspensions, brakes and accessories
    -Greddy Exhaust
    -Some kind of body kit

    Later on when i'm not completely broke:
    -Turbo, intake (K&N or Injen), HKS valves

    sexy...

    The Scion FR-S Modellista Body Kit looks pretty good:

    I think I will drive the car bone stock for a while, and take it lapping/auto-xing at least a couple times before I can determine what modifications to do.

    From bottom to top, 18" alloys and tyres, a set of better brake pads and a slightly stiffer and lower suspension set.

    What ever car I get, since I can't pay very much attention to it for a while, sound system. With any car, it has to sound great when I play music.
