I think maybe you misunderstood the thread a little. EDIT: I guess I misunderstood a little. Haha.. I just saw your edit. I am not in the market to get another second hand sports car, and, while I might get a FR-S, it's a little beside the point. The point is, however, to discuss the decision of buying a new FR-S or looking at a comparatively priced used sports car. Why would you get one over another?
It seems like the typical market for the car, at least those on forums, are at least a little mechanically inclined. So, replacing parts and performing maintenance on a used car shouldn't be an issue.
Personally, I don't really mind buying a used sports car. I mean, I bought my STI used. It only had 27,000 miles, but I have no idea what the car was doing during that period. It could have been autoxing for 5000 of them for all I know. However, the compression checked out, the car hadn't been in an accident, and, overall, everything was exceptionally clean.
If you plan to modify a used car, you shouldn't have to worry about previous owners abusing certain components. I.E powertrain, suspension
