I feel you man, this is another reason I chose Scion over Subaru, because the Scion price is "fixed" and they wouldn't jerk me around as much as Subaru dealerships and their "over zealous market value markups".

I had a sales lady and she was really cool. Even though she didn't know what the car she was selling me, (or was even coming for that matter) I educated her and she seemed surprised, then offered me a job selling cars, and I was like "lol, no thanks, I already sold cars for a few years, and refuse to go back". It was by far the most stressful and difficult job I have ever had. And this is coming from a somewhat gear-head type aficionado.

I don't blame some of the members of this site for going to multiple dealerships both Scion and Suby just incase those jerks try to take crack their wallets...

I can see a lot of the similarities to the Twins when I'm driving me Mustang GT. The corner windows are useless, there is a huge blindspot and the mirrors are smaller than I'm used to but they work. Coming from a truck where I had great visibility it's a little unnerving. I love the low driving position, my dad drives an old Buick Regal coupe and I would say the Mustang seats are 10x better than the "Buick bench." The backseats are uncomfortable for my <6' stature but I fit, just barely. The steering is hit or miss, sometimes I feel in complete control, while sometimes it feels like somebody else is steering. The old foxbody Mustang is on the edge of what I consider acceptable in size and weight(mine is probably 3200lbs) and I am not going to try this again, "classic" parts are expensive $$$.

Definitely still considering a FRS/BRZ in the near future tho.

If you're stuck on the brand or badges you're looking in the wrong place. The S2000 is anything but a typical Honda.

Idk guys a 2006 STI for 15,000 at 60k miles is pretty tempting... saw that today at work on craigslist

I would have done it, as this was the ad I was eyeballing, and the owner said I had first crack at it, but had close to 130K miles.

Oh wow, he raised the price by $1000, I was locked in at 15K lol :iono:
engine bay looks really clean, but I can spot some wear in the interior though...

The mileage made me cringe a little bit however your right the engine bay looks damn good. If you do decide to go through with it im sure you can talk him down a grand or 2

I think I might have to pass up my BRZ because I'm trying to get my hands on this baby as long as it doesn't exceed a certain price I'm willing to pay:

:clap: Good find good sir.

:thanks:

Actually there was a Red one sold for 22k about a year or two ago in SoCal that I was looking at and was ready to give a check to for 20k but someone 1up'd me before the deal was done. F***ER

That car is from Gaylordsville... Heh

Nope another car did not lure me away from a FR-S/BRZ. I went and got a new motorcycle. Victory Crossroads. I'll kick the new car can down the road probable a year or two. Until then I have an awesome new motorcycle to ride. :thanks:

Wow, it's an actual place. I thought it was a fake auction at first when I saw that.

Sounds like a place a 12 year old would tell another he was from.

The listing already expired?

It's an old and obscure family name.

Since I first learned about FRS in December, 2011, I have caved in to Veloster (Feb, 2012) and then to a Miata (April, 2012). I hope FRS feels like a roofed Miata. That would be so fun.

Having just driven BOTH within the past 3 weeks, i Can definitely say that you won't be disappointed:thumbup:. I drove the AP2 S2000 recently too. I wouldn't compare the FRS to that as much, just because i find the s2000 has a little more aggressive, almost nervous, driving character. The FR-S is definitely more miata than S2000.
