It was geat winding out the boxer and hearing it howl without going insanely fast.. Also like the nimbleness as the vettes with their fat tires always felt heavy when driving normal.. Looking forward to having something fun to toss around without the expense and white knuckle paranoia that is associated with high HP cars on the street.. Thanks for the post..

Sounds like we're coming from the same place. I don't think you'll regret it if you pull the trigger.

Good to have another join the family. This place really is awesome for info, sharing ideas, etc...

This car is such a joy to drive with the windows down, on a nice windy road, no radio the car properly warmed up. Its pure bliss.

Congratulations!

Cool color, btw. I almost did that myself, but happy with my (end) choice. That hot lava is going to be a collector, not a lot of them are selling

I came from a C6 too and although my FR-S is okay it doesn't put a smile on my face like my C6 did. Sold my C6 and a few months later bought the FR-S to hold me over for ~2years until the C7 used market develops and pick up a used C7.

Yeah I made that mistake too. Damn car payments!

Says the dude who lives in Cali.

My 2nd can be pretty notchy when it is cold, but I have noticed that in the warmer weather it isn't notchy for long.
