Saw a Silver FR-S yesterday driving in Gray/New Gloucester, ME. My first time seeing one in person and boy did I confuse my GF and her daughter when the car drove by :)

This shouldn't even be a comparison. The Civic Si doesn't hold a candle to an FR-S/BRZ. I am currently selling my 07 Civic Si sedan and I must say that this was one of the worst car decisions I have...

So does this eliminate the possibility of a TRD Supercharger option? If so, that's highly disappointing.

Oh wow you found one example of somebody who had an engine problem with a 350+hp motor. Shucks. Guess the tens of thousands of other C5's that are still on the road must be ticking time bombs.

I'm holding out hope for either the TRD Supercharger coming to fruition or a turbo version of either car being released. That would keep me interested.

I can already see that it is going to be extremely difficult to find a used FR-S or BRZ 2-3 years from now that has never been modified. Guess if I ever buy one, it will be brand new for sure.
