In my opinion I own a nice car, the FR-S is just the DD. You're only going to hate on it, but my weekend car is car I've been working on since I was 16 (31 now). 1970 Chevy Chevelle SS 454 (496 ci now) that I've done quite a lot to over the years. Again though, since it's not European or Italian you probably think of it as shit also.
To answer your first question I own a FR-S because it is a cheap solution to having a DD and a racecar all in one. I wanted something I could beat the fucking shit out of and not ever feel bad about it. I could have afforded more expensive and exotic cars, but I want a tool, not a piece of art.

IMO the quality is pretty shitty, the build quality of this car is on par with shitty imprezas and carolas. Personally I think cheaper Honda's have WAY better quality than the twins therefore they are shitty.

Also who ever said I was hating on the car? Older Ferrari's are HUGE HUGE HUGE piles of shit, you can hardly drive them a block! BUT many of them are super cool. Italian's make the biggest piles of shit out there! Ask anyone with a Fiat!

Nice and cool are not the same thing.
