I agree with this advice. If you have no interest in tracking your car and just want a small RWD turbo car for the street, I'd trade for an M235i. You don't have to worry about all the headaches of an aftermarket turbo. Granted it's kind of porky at ~3500 lbs, but I think it's worth it for an OEM reliable car that will put down 340whp/370wtq with a tune and intake/exhaust.
But if you have any interest in the track at all, keep the FR-S and put your money towards seat time and consumables. The Twins are a phenomenal starting point (or ending point) if you enjoy going to the track and learning how to push your limits as a driver.
