I'm looking very closely at the FR-S as my next car. However, having owned a Supra for 4 trouble free years now, I have come to realize that even though it is not new, for the same price bracket, it's a fantastic alternative.

Surely, they are not made for the same purpose, but it's hard not to want to buy another one. I think I can find the same satisfaction (lightweight, nimble, etc) if I can find a clean 1J S14 with working heat and A/C (I've owned an RB S13 before)....
