Just wait until you get the crickets.

Jokes aside, the FR-S isn't an easy car to drive properly, but it's worth the trouble and the effort to learn its quirks. Like Braces said above, this is a pure sports car. The Miata is more forgiving, but it's a different type of car, so in a way you're comparing apples to oranges.

Yes, it's possible you got the wrong car for you, but it's going to take some time before you can really know for sure - a month isn't long enough to really learn it.
