On a side note, I am glad OP is happy with his car, I just wish this was like the Focus and Fiesta ST.....6 speed manual only!
You can't compare Toyota to Ford like that. Toyota doesn't have a mustang or F-150 for their youth segment to fall back on.

The automatic FR-S is just another way to make sales. Without it the FR-S might have gone the way of the S2000 with a few years of sales and then gone.
