Fortunately I'm already in negotiations with Toyota. They have agreed to a complete buy-back and I should see ALL my money paid thus far returned to me in about 2 weeks. After I have my money, Toyota will set up a time to drop the car off and then I am rid of the FR-S forever. I truly love the car (when its running properly) but I will not be buying another. I'm gonna go with something a little more proven reliable. I'll miss the community and the looks and comments I get with the FR-S but believe its for the best.
Geez, you have had quite the ordeal with this car. Best wishes for the next car to be perfect!
