OP: Have you ever actually driven a Cayman S? It is a even better driving experience than an FR-S. Think FR-S with luxury and more power.
No, I have never driven a Cayman S. Not sure if I mentioned this before, but the Cayman S (used one, that is) was top on my list of cars I wanted before getting the FRS. For $30K you can get a nice Cayman. However my CFO (read: wife) required a backseat for family reasons (5 year old). So, used Cayman S was off the list. Plus the Cayman would be out of warranty, but the for the same price the FR-S has a 100K mile plus bumper to bumper warranty. Which is priceless when you put 3000-4000/month on your car driving for work.

I think the Z06, CaymanS and GT-R are fantastic cars (enough so to pay a good chunk of change to drive them on the track in Vegas) and would love to have one, if not all. They are still on my "must have one day" list along with the Viper. But, I think even if I had one (or all) of the above, I would still keep the FRS and drive it. For the price and for what it delivers, I am very happy with the car. And at any rate in the same fantasy world where I could afford a GT-R, Viper, CaymanS and Z06... I wouldn't need to trade my FR-S in...
