People say I made a bad move, but they aren't the ones driving it everyday. If I'd kept my Evo, I'm pretty sure I'd pick the FR-S to drive when doing just about anything. It's just pure fun, and I can't wait to drive it more!

I made the same move. No regrets so far. I don't miss the power. The car is fantastic for the street. I'll try it out at Laguna Seca this weekend to see if the lack of power and grip makes the car fun, or if it will have me yearning for the Evo again...
The Evo was big, but your poor ride probably had more to do with the coilovers you installed than the car itself. If you get coilovers for the FR-S, make sure you get a good set, like Ohlins. Otherwise, I'll bet your FR-S will become 'bumpy' as well.
