I would easily suck down quarter tank of gas to work and back (56 miles) The FRS barely budges when it comes to gas and its so much damn fun. Getting rid of an M3 though? Don't think I'd do it. Best car that BMW ever built and ever will built. Where I go from here, don't know, most likely another high speed high powered car. May keep the FRS and finally get that jeep, if the wife doesn't end up getting one. Then I'd slowly build the FRS, so it will squat and break a hundred without blinking.
To be fair, I'm sure most wouldn't give up an M3 for an FR-S. They're two very different cars though. The Fr-s suits my driving style better, always has. Well, by always has I mean I had a supercharged MR2, and a Lotus Elise. All three not as fast as the Beemer, but the handling, lightweight, nimbleness, quickness is how I love my car's evidently. The Beemer was super fast, but it felt like exactly what it was, a big car (comparatively)

All we know is.... He's called The Stig
