Autoguide text and video road test of FR-S

http://www.autoguide.com/manufacture...ideo-1974.html

Conclusion:
Quote:
As much as we’d like to spend the extra to get the more aggressive kit, the most special part about the FR-S is that you don’t have to add anything to the base price to have what is easily the single best performance bargain on the market.

It is, in every way, exactly what it was promised to be, making it not just an affordable driver’s car, but the affordable driver’s car.
Laughed at this line: 'Worst of all is the stereo face, which looks so low grade it’s insulting."
