10 fun small cars
 
http://autos.yahoo.com/news/10-small...****00591.html


really though? I've had a mini, and this car is so much more fun. I have trouble believing some of those cars are more fun than the 86 is.

:bellyroll: LMAO at the Buick Verano being on this list...

After looking at most of the 9 cars that beat the FR-S, you have to wonder what their definition of "fun" is...

I had an MCS too.. Totally agree with you.. This car is way more capable and feels like a sports car in comparison.. People on here complain about the twins.. The minis had much worse issues like shock tower mounts that would deform, windshields cracking due to stress, clown car looks and bronco rodeo ride.. Don't miss it ..

This has to be one of the worst lists I have ever seen... Miata and Ft96 should be occupying the #1 and #2 spots, and I don't even care which one is #1. The Verano???? VW Eos? No Focus ST or Fiesta ST?

I own a GTI and FR-S, and there's no doubt in my mind the FR-S is more fun.

Maybe that list is backwards, or maybe it was created by Yahoo Autos... :bonk:

I swear these lists are drawn out of a hat...is it "small" because the buick is only 4 cylinders? "fun" because it's a turbo? :iono: I got nothing here...can't say I ever been driving down the street and said...damn that's a nice Verano...wtf?!

The fact that the FR-S and BRZ have 2 cars in-between them invalidates the list.

wrxgoose 12-18-2013 10:58 AM

my bet is Yahoo Autos

My bet is a drunk intern who also eat bath salts....

I love how the FRS and BRZ are both on there, but are several places away form each other in the rankings. Are the twins so different that several other cars make better since before picking between the two? What a joke of a list.

Oooooo.......I didn't realize that the BRZ was more fun to drive than the FR-S ...... maybe I should trade .. ??

They must think a little more oversteer = less fun

No Abarth = fail

Much more fun on city streets than an 86 imho.

More fun to make a personal list:

Abarth > Miata > 86 > whatever else
