I think its funny how some people are worried that the FR-S is the second coming of the fast and furious. There's plenty of new cars to rice out now if you wanted to.

In my opinion I would be fine with every damn person on the road driving a twin. The more support for affordable rwd sports cars the better. Besides, if you are so insecure about some kid pulling up next to you in 5 years with a crooked body kit and an airplane wing, go trade your FR-S for a Cayman then. Or better yet, the new Supra

I still don't think $25K+ cars are "cheap" and "entry level". The twins have not been out more than a year and even used ones are typically selling fpr $22-24K for a base FR-S (and more for a BRZ). Maybe in 5-8 years... But unless mommy/daddy are co-signing and making payments, not many young males will be buying these cars once you factor in insurance.

I also would like to add that some people just have stickers all over their car. When I see stickers, I think of

1/ Sponsored ads
2/ Rice
3/ Clueless about sport car taste
Fix my typo before you do, please!

When people "ghetto" mod our cars, it puts a bad name on all of us. We all share a name here.
