Owned it for 18 months now, car has about 12k miles and 3 track days.

Of those 12k miles, ~4k have been road trip miles as my commute is 5 miles per day so I just don't use it a lot. Also I live in the midwest so there are 0 fun and twisty roads around. Track days are fun but I'd rather spend that money elsewhere at this stage of my life (late 20s). Another thing I regret is getting a Scion, in professional settings car talk often comes up and people always crack a joke about Scions and loud exhausts, it's not an image I want. I disagree with this but such is life. If I had a collector's garage I'd keep the FRS and just stare at it because it is a sexy car.

I feel like I use my car as point A to point B so it's a complete waste to have an FRS for it and I'd be much better off financially with something else. My monthly payment is only $300 but I've been thinking about getting a cheap e46 because 99% of the time my car is not being tracked.

Maybe I'm just getting bored with it as I've sold my last 3 cars after 2 years of ownership.

Should I sell or am I being crazy?
