Today is the day that i made a decision to Trade in my 2014 Scion Frs and get a Jeep Rubicon. Jeeps are a little more expensive so i was looking at maybe a 2011-2012 with medium miles on it. The price range i was looking at was around 23-27k My dad owns a tire business and they also make lift kits and other stuff. Basically this is what i want to make my jeep look like and i think im making a good decision.

Looks good man, but keep in mind when you get a lift, you will want big tires, which will make you need new gears. This whole process if done the right way will cost 7-10k in it's self depending on how big you go.

As 002 said, its expensive when done right, but itll be sweet on a jeep.

Just saying, you're gonna feel hella slow with a v6 in a lifted Jeep. It's gonna take a bit to get going, and you're not going to be able to build speed all that well.
My suggestion would be if you really want a lifted Jeep, get an older wrangler and look into an engine swap, easiest would probably be Dodge's HEMI. Don't plan on having it as your daily driver.

That'll bring in a lot more memories than your FR-S.

If you're gonna spend that much on upgrading why not just do something big to the FRS?
