All I'm going to add to this circle jerk is... I get to drive my wife's FR-S to work tomorrow, and I can't wait.


Yeah, I said I can't wait to go to work on Saturday... and drive my wife's FR-S!

Called his wife (from three states away) to say he was divorcing, but keeping the car :D

Haha! Not exactly... I did have to come home eventually, but I am still smilin'!


I've never driven a car that handles this good! I have always thought my Camaro becomes an extension of myself when I get behind the wheel; it easily handles better than any car I had ever driven prior. But the FR-S is the next level of 'communicating with the road'. The steering is incredibly precise, and the 2.0 liter boxer runs & sounds great!


One week of ownership, and I'm impressed. More importantly, the wife is totally :wub:

Hmmm. I've been eyeing the camaro ss with 1le package as a possible upgrade for the FRS. I'm curious what kind of camaro do you drive?

Unfortunately not the 1le, I wish, just a good ol' SS with L99 (auto). Got it with 3 miles on the odo back in '09. No such thing as a 1le back then, and this suits my DD needs here in over populated SoCal. (I added CAI cold air intake and GMPP axle-back.)


I've heard incredible things about the 1le, but never experienced it, yet. It's supposed to be a track beast, and it's got the looks to match.


I'm pretty curious about the 6th gen, around the corner. I don't think I'll be trading mine in anytime soon, but this HP & Performance war is really churning out some nice American muscle again; it's fun to be a part of it!


Edit: here's my favorite shot I took of my Camaro :happyanim:
