I find it interesting that people are mostly is going for the "more practical" route.
The FR-S is more than enough practical for me! 2 rear seats that I've never had any problems fitting anybody in, a fold-down rear seat that doubles the trunk space and allow you to fit insane amounts of cargo in such a small car, all while getting 30MPG highway! I'd prefer to have something LESS practical! Feels good to be young enough to not having to worry about needing a big hulking SUV or pick-up. |

My second car is a 4x4 Chevy Suburban Z71. The FR-S is my daily commuter car, the Suburban is my weekend errand/hauling the family car.

Probably an Evo X. 4 doors, AWD for snow, stock suspension is sporty in corners yet still comfortable, and the price of additional horsepower is a lot less than other cars *cough*frs*cough*.
It has problems though. It gets like 19 mpg, the rear seat doesn't fold down, and mitsubishi probably won't be around in a couple years. 2015 is the last model year for the Evo lineup too. |

Money no object - Range Rover Sport Autobiography. I work at a jag/LR dealership and after driving these about quite a bit, I've come to really love them. Wouldn't want to deal with those maintenance/repair/fuel costs unless I had money to burn, though.
As is - Subaru Crosstrek. A practical, comfortable and still get up and go kind of car. |

Some relatively cheap, reliable four wheel drive pickup with a top. Then I could drive in deep snow, haul lots of stuff, and take more than one rc plane to the field at a time.

Seems kinda pointless? I mean, the FRS/BRZ is the one of the most ideal cars if you can only own one car. If I was going to actually have two cars, it makes more sense to have pair up something extreme like an Elise with something practical like a big sedan or truck.

always wanted a motorcycle, maybe something like a r6 yamaha. Been driving for a while, must be a different experience to feel the breeze and have both your feet literally touch the ground at every stop light
