I was comparing the S2000, RX-8, and MX-5 Miata to the FR-S in my mind yesterday and I came to this conclusion: The S2000 is more high strung and almost race-car like. The FR-S is more relaxed and traditional sports car like. It doesn't have as much grip as the S2000 but that's what makes it fun. So in a way, you would be stepping down in performance but stepping up in fun.

Yeah, but fast cars are often not fun cars. Sure, you are impressed by the speed and grip but on the streets, that can only go so far.

That reminds me of the 458 Italia review by Jeremy Clarkson when he's like, "If I had just bought a Ferrari F430, I would probably want to commit suicide right now."
