This car has the most amazing looking profile under 50k. If a car doesn't have a beautiful profile I find it ugly overall like a Porsche Cayman or Boxster. If you look at these two cars from the side it looks like the front profile and the rear profile is the same shape.

Yeah it has a good sided profile when it is lowered like in the Greddy FR-S. That car has the perfect profile.

I just bought the magazine. It says the Greddy FR-S is 2,720 lbs with a half a tank of gas.

That would be in the ball park of the estimated curb weight [6.75 gallons = 41 lbs.].

2,761 sounds heavy compared to the high spec Japanese models. And the car is a low spec with high spec 17's. If you take away the wheels and big brakes it should be around 2,730 right?

The weight in the magazine is 2,679 empty, the estimate from the test drives in Japan are 2,690, and the target weight was 2,700.
