Umm, no. I don't think the average person distinguishes between front wheel drive and rear wheel drive. With that being said, alot of FWD cars are fun to drive, and cheap.

The FR-S is designed more for a niche market; those that like autocross, circuit race, and drift possibly. I see this car filling the need of an awesome base car for those enthusiasts.
