Regret it or not?
 
I love my FR-S and also hate it at same time, because Toyota could of spent little more effort to make car better. way too many small problems.

If you could go back in time. would you still get it or not?

i think this also ties into wait or not? if you could do it again, would you wait for the 2014 model?

I love cars.. I don't have my fr-s yet but when every new car u buy there will always be small problems. But I'm sure when i get my car i will enjoy it and not worry about stuff like that

I agree with you.
I was expecting problems and I bought it knowing that.
But honestly, there are more problems than I expected.
(Rear deck noise is the one I can't stand.) :cry:

If I could go back in time... I still would get it. :thumbsup: :thumbup:

Not happy with it? Sell it. You can probably get 90% of your purchase price back, maybe even all of it. If you don't like the car now, your dislike for it will only get worse over time.

What... what small problems would make you regret buying this car? That's madness. What were you driving before you bought this car?

To answer the question, I don't regret it. Probably never will. Even if the engine blew up under warranty, I would still not regret buying this car.

I don't really understand how all these little things about the car annoy people SO MUCH. You guys are seeking perfection. A perfect car does not exist. I'm guessing the majority of these people are young people that are buying the FR-S/BRZ as their first car or first non-POS car. You guys need some perspective.

Meh, I was hoping for more, to be honest. There's a ton of little nitpicky things that bug me too. But on the flip side of that coin, I can't think of another car this side of $50k I'd rather be driving. There just seems to be a dearth of good (new) cars for sale right now.

So would I do it again? Eh... probably.

No regrets.

Just curious, what is it that bothers you?

I've had my BRZ for about 3 weeks now and it's been bulletproof. Today I thought there was a problem when the transmission was making funny noises as I took off, but within a few minutes I realized I had left the parking break on. :confused0068:

The one complaint I have is that my girlfriend can't seem to learn to close the door without touching the window. Fingerprints everywhere!

I regret trading my 2010 4Runner Trail for the car. I thought I wanted a car for a change, but now I really miss my 4R! If I could undo the deal right now, I would in a heartbeat. It's not that I don't like the FR-S, but it really limits me on cargo space when I want to go fly my r/c airplanes.

I don't regret buying the car. just my friend wants to get it too. and i was not sure if i should Anchorage him to get it or tell him to think 2s.
The problems that bother me are simple things like interior quality and rattle noise. nothing big enough for me to go all way to dealership.

and for some of you. if you got nothing nice to say go fk your self. eather answer the question or go troll some other post.!
