Yep...to each his own. To me, a true "Sports Car" in the traditional sense, is a two seater (or maybe 2+2) lightweight, toss able, short wheelbase, great handling car. These attributes make me want throw my FR-S around, with a big grin on my face. I loved my C6 experience, but it was completely different. The car didn't want to be thrown around, unlike its race derivative as pointed out here by some. It wanted stay planted an generate big acceleration and top speed numbers. It was a blast. But the FR-S is actually more fun to take through a turn. You feel every bit of the dynamics going on, which is amazing since its got electric power steering. The driver feedback is 911 like. My Corvette, although a great machine, felt numb by comparison. The C6 was always ready to blow you away (I actually beat a sport bike stoplight to stoplight!) but you aren't driving, the car is. There is (IMHO) a thick layer of technology between you and the road, and you feel it. It feels like you're dialing in requests to the engine room. The FR-S is far more transparent by comparison. **I** am driving once again.

Just my 2¢ worth

Was your car a Z51 or MSRC car?
