I agree. I have driven or owned a decent list of "true" sports and muscle cars, including at least one example of every generation of Corvette, Camaro, Mustang and even an exotic or two. You know the car I enjoyed driving the most on the highway? My Gen 1 1985 Toyota MR2 that cost $11,000 new. Why?, because it met the exact description above. You could drive it safely on the edge in non-track conditions every day of the week.

That is the feeling I'm hoping the FR-S duplicates. If it does, there is nothing in the Mid $20K that will come close to competing with it in my view.
