New to me FiST in SLC

Hello everyone!

Picked up a Molten Orange '14 FiST with 29k (moonroof, no recaros) on the clock after trading in my Black Cherry Mica 04 Miata with 72k. Test drove the FiST first and then FoST but hated the Recaros and the seating position in the FoST (I'm short-ish) and my right arm was horribly uncomfortable when shifting due to the bolsters. Went right back to driving the FiST and took it home. I really wanted White but they only had new ones there out of a price range I was interested in.

Lots of character with this car and it reminds me of the turbo and supercharged Miatas I have driven before (not mine, though!) but just FWD. Have some mods planned over the next couple of months aimed at improving control with a brace or two, RMM, shifter bushings and some new foglights since one housing is cracked. Outside of that I'll just enjoy it as it is for a little while before committing to a direction with mods if any at all. Would still like to sit in another FiST with the Recaros to see if I have the same problem as on the FoST. Guess I need to find some new friends, haha

Love looking at all the different FiSTs! Anyway, lots more reading to do!
