When I was 15 I went to Germany and did European Delivery on a brand new $40k BMW. Not the best of decisions, but it was awesome driving that car in high school. That car was easily the best learners car I could have ever purchased. In fact it probably saved my life as all the technology in that car corrected my bad decisions. I traded the BMW in for the FRS because I was tired of the luxury and wanted a manuel. In my opinion the FRS is not a good starter car. Its a great car for someone who has driven a RWD sports car before because you know its tendencies , but if you have never driven RWD it could turn into a disaster. Honestly, I think this car is worse that getting a Mustang/Camero V6 just because this is made to get away from you. If your responsible you can always take that risk, but just be careful because all it takes is one mistake in this car as it doesn't have all the technology to save you.
