Good to see you hung around.

Yes, we CAN get into some intense conversations, from time to time.

If your car has a manual transmission (and maybe with an auto transmission), you can somewhat "get around" that lack of low end torque feeling, by keeping the RPMs up. Like shift around 5,000 rpms .... these little engines like that.

Oh yes, keep back from the parking stops. Your SUV always told you when to stop, when the wheel hit the parking stop. With the FR-S, it will tell you also, by the blood curdling, scrunching sound, that is made as the front clip grinds into the concrete stop......guess what wins ......

Now, I suggest you get hold of a owners manual and read the whole thing.
