No regret buying my whiteout FR-S whatsoever.

I did my research and considered my options. Took me 6 months and over two dozen test drives of different vehicles to make my decision. Only car that came close (well is actually better) to the FR-S was a Porsche Cayman S. Decided I did not want to spend that much $$$ on a car right now.

Only regret I have now is I cannot make up my mind on how to mod my FR-S.

Regrets?!? Hell no! Toying with selling the FJ so I can buy another to turn into a beast/track car.

It was this or a used Cayman S. The cost of mods and ability to wrench on it myself without having a nervous breakdown won out.

Honestly, I know they are different types of cars, but if the new WRX ends up looking really close to the concept, have the specs that people are speculating, and a decent price... I might have a regret with the FRS.

At the moment though I love it. It seems stupid or whatever you want to call it, but I love being able to go days without seeing another one on the road. Makes me feel all special and stuff on the inside :p

Did I hear regrets?



Waiting for the used ones to come down in price so I can scoop one up without paying the "new car" depreciation.

That or.. We'll see what the 2014 has to offer. Maybe we'll get the RS along side the 10.
