It should be of note that EVERYTHING shaX_07 has stated to be a negative is an opinion, not a fact. You ignore the quoted EPA rating for the corvette and simply say higher MPG can be achieved in practice, this can be said about ANY vehicle. the EPA qualifications for determining MPG are federally mandated tests, in practice hyper milers achieve vastly superior MPG. Apples to apples, the FR-S gets superior MPG then your (poorly chosen I might add) comparison vehicle. That said, since you refuse to make a point based on anything other then opinion, why waste your time? No one is going to make you buy an FR-S/BRZ at gun point. It's more like you have some sort of hard on for this car and you just cant help but vent your frustrations. You can go ahead and purchase a used Corvette, they are great cars, but far from the scalpel I am after, the FR-S seems to deliver on that promise so far.
