To answer the guys above who don't understand why anybody would buy a automatic in a sports car. First of all if the FR-S had a antiquated automatic like a FD Rx7,Supra,and 300ZX then I could see your argument for it not making sense. But the reason people buy the auto and love it is because it's the best of both worlds. I use my paddles when the road is very low on traffic and put mines in auto when the roads are infested with an abundance of slow driving individuals. I prefer conditions where I can rev past 2500-3000 rpms because for me a manual is 0 fun in traffic-like speeds if I can't rev it how I see fit to use it. I'm glad Toyota gave the FR-S/BR-Z a auto that's fun with sport mode and I never have regrets about not getting the manual.
