24 hours before the Scion "Road to SEMA" FR-S was to be placed inside the Las Vegas Convention Center for the 2012 SEMA Show, it was being flogged by Matt Farah. Being one of the hardest working journalists in the automotive industry, Matt is the on-air automotive correspondent for G4 TV's Attack of the Show, and for good reason. Matt has had much success with his own online blog, The Smoking Tire, in addition to co-hosting The Car Show on Speed TV with Adam Carolla and Dan Neil.

Roger Garbow and I (Team Hardcore - a nickname given to us courtesy of Matt) had just driven 16 hours straight through the night from Frederick, Colorado, experiencing weather conditions ranging from snow, rain, frigid temperatures and everything in between, in order to be in Pahrump, NV (yes, that is the actual name of the town) at Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch by high noon so that Matt could test the "Road to SEMA" FR-S against a stock one.

Needless to say we arrived early, the test went off without a hitch, and the car performed well. You'll have to watch the segment to see...
