Honestly, I think the numbers are extremely small when shopping for a DD. If looking at a weekend fun car, the numbers are larger, but I think Toyota & Subaru are aiming more for the FWD sport market.

I used to have a 2006 Miata and I was not impressed. The engine screams but the car crawls. I would not recommend it to anyone unless you are looking for an affordable convertible. If having a convertible is not your top priority, go with FRS. It is a no-brainer.
