No, a CAMRY buyer expects that. When Toyota still made sports cars (i.e. Celica and Supra) they attracted a different group of buyers. The FRS is an attempt to lure some of those buyers back (which baffles me as to why they didn't badge it as a Toyota Celica in the US). Those buyers have a different set of expectations. You seem to assume that buyers are morons and if they're looking for a Toyota they'll take any Toyota.
