buy the frs... Dont trade it in... You'll soon find the love u once had for ur tc is now all about ur frs... Then u sell ur tc to a private party with no rush in mind and u can accept or decline any offer... It'll hurt a bit to part ways with ur tc, but then wind from driving the frs will dry ur tears ...

See I also was thinking the same thing... Keeping the FR-S in the cover when not in use & tC as the daily driver, even though I work 15 minutes away from my house.

I don't see the point having both a tC and FRS.
The FRS isn't an Elise or a 997 GT3 RS, it's a cracking RWD sporty - yet wholly practical - coupe that should be very reliable and can easily be a great allrounder/DD/track day car. There is no reason to keep it for the weekends and drive a tC 75% of the time.

If you're living in a home that you're buying and if owning two cars won't upset your life style, have at it. If you're renting or living in your parents home it makes no sense having two cars and you need to get your priorities in order.

Well I currently live at home with my single mother who I help out as much as possible for the moment. Even bought her a new car almost 2 years ago. As Im close to finishing up school, I been saving up & will be getting a home by the end of the year with a garage for my FR-S/BRZ with my lovely gf. My tC is paid off, so there are no payments. Ive worked with my company for almost 8 years & by Friday will know if Im moving up the ranks. I also sell music production(beats)/my songwriting material on the side. So I would say I have a good head on my shoulders & priorities in order.

Cool. Do you watch any battle rap at all? A lot of those guys do music on the side, and they often respond to people on Facebook, Twitter, etc., so maybe reach out to them. Seeing how you're in New Jersey, maybe reach out to local acts, like Arsonal, Tsu Surf, Shotgun Suge, O-Red, Serius Jones, etc. Or even Hussein Fatal and his crew, though he's a little bit bigger of a name, having worked with Tupac (but not done anything significant since then, though his albums and mixtapes are pretty good, but most of the beats he uses are mediocre).
