Nice work with the clear side markers! Makes the car looks so much better. Can't wait for my car to show up!
I was lucky enough to drive an FR-S on the Pacific Coastal Hwy for 3 days and having owned a Miata for over 6 years, here is a quick note on how they compare:
- the FR-S is one of the more "rear driven" cars I have driven. You don't need to do big power slides or anything like that but you can feel the rear end pushing you around and helping to rotate the car. I like that.
- In stock form its definitely NOT a power car, but a finesse car. Its very communicative despite its electrically assisted steering. Some people who think its slow or don't like the skinny tires are kind of missing the point of the car. Its not meant to blow your mind with speed, but to blow your mind with fun. I like that.
- While I applaud those who will spend the time tuning their cars, I rather enjoy the car as it is stock. 99% of my driving is around town, and I will go to the occasional track day. So I will cater my car to the 99% of the driving I do, which is generally low speed stuff. I love how much fun you can have with this car even going at low speed. Easiest car to drift I have ever driven, and not scary at all. I like that also.
For me this car is an "old school" car built with new age conveniences. The 10 series is just closer to what I ultimately want.
Only thing I am struggling with now is whether I should remove the Scion badges and replace them with Toyota....
