I can find a ton of reviews praising the FRS, but I haven't run across many reviews by people who own the car, who can speak with authority about the joys and sorrows of ownign an FRS, who are willing to give the bad with the good. After watching your first video, I was left with a sense that the car will accomplish what I want; a fun to drive, cheap car.

My only concern is, my last two toys had 400+whp. I found that my 3,100# C5 Vette with 410whp was really more than I could responsibly use to its fullest on the street, and the ridiculous acceleration lost its luster after a while. Cornering began to be the part I enjoyed about the car. I think the FRS will be even more fun in the agility department, but I'm a bit worried that over time, I'll begin to become dissilusioned with the lack of power. Watching your second review gives me more concern...
If you have the money to buy a vette, i would guess that you have the money to make the FRS as fast as you need it to be.
