Wast of time driving FR-S with 20s!

Dealer that gave them that car to test should be shot.
Blogger that did the test should have enough sense to ask for a stock car or at the very least a car not severely handicapped and there for should also be shot.
Don’t waste your time with this BS.

wow 17mpg (avg I'm assuming) - Unless this was reset before he took it for an aggressive test drive they beat the hell out of this thing in its first 1k miles. I feel sorry for anyone who buys that particular car.

$28k is pricey?

dem00n 09-17-2012 07:24 PM

Damn, 20 inch wheels really do ruin the car. :confused0068:

pyro530 09-17-2012 07:27 PM

Damn, I think I just puked a little.

xAgentzero13 09-17-2012 07:31 PM

I'm sorry, I know I'm not supposed to hate and stuff but...


WHO THE HELL WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS??!!? :mad0260::mad0260::mad0260::mad0260::mad0260::mad0 260::mad0260::mad0260::mad0260::mad0260::mad0260:: mad0260::mad0260::mad0260::mad0260::mad0260:


/end rant


I'm sorry OP, that you had to be subjected to that. Everything from acceleration, steering feel, steering response, and even MPG must have been absolutely compromised by the addition of those 4 things. :mad0259::mad0259:

Report card is off IMO
Affordability 5/10 - that's somewhat understandable...
Practicality 2/10 - Really? What other (current) sports car in that length that has leg space for the back passengers... seriously
Maintenance 8/10 - I guess this reader haven't read any CEL & idle problems... or other first yr bugs.
and other two should have been at least 9 or high

Guff 09-17-2012 07:58 PM

And MPG should have been almost doubled...

Yea, 2/10 practicality.. for a soccer mom who NEEDS to pick up 3 kids and groceries for the week. :lol:

I find the FR-S/BRZ's practicality more like 8/10 for what I need.

Exactly! If they're looking for some sports car that has some seats in the back, go buy Panamera!

8/10? Now that's more understandable
