Went through hell and back for this girl.
A lot of your concerns were in the earlier built cars. The earlier the production the more likely a problem would show up. As production went along and as problems were found and corrected you'll find that the later manufactured cars don't suffer a lot of the complaints you hear and read about about. My FR-S was built in August. When I first got it I had a little rattle in the rear end but that has gone away by itself. There have been absolutely no other issues with my car and I'm pushing 7,000 miles. If you can swing it, buy it now and enjoy it. If you wait for the 2014 it won't be too difficult to find a reason to wait for the 2015, etc. etc.

So many cars, so little time.
