But I love the FRS and I don't want to drive anything else. Really. Even if you were to give me a Z06, Nissan GT-R, Cayman S (insert your favorite here), I would still keep my FRs and flog it daily. This car has a unique unmatched quality, a certain character, that makes it special...in addition to its other fantastic traits listed elsewhere.
I do have a track day coming up shortly in Vegas where I'll get time behind the wheel of the Cayman R and GT-R but I doubt it will change my mind... I'm betting the takeaway will be "awesome cars, can't wait to take the FRS to the track!" not "I wish I had..."
So I can't imagine getting rid of it to drive anything else. I wonder how many feel the same?
(That being said-- somebody please give me a Gt-R, Cayman S or Z06  ) |
Sometimes a ton of power isn't the key. I think the FRS/BRZ are one of the funnest bang-for-your-buck cars ever made. Add a few power/suspension mods and it rivals the "fun" factor of most much more expensive sports cars.
I have a 450whp car that I can never exploit and it's actually kind of frustrating to drive reserved almost all the time, aside from a few rare occasions or when I'm at the track. There's something to be said about a car you can "push" regularly, it's actually much more fun.
I think once I sell my current ride, I might actually pick up an FRS!
