...what? You were in love with the leg room in the back?

But seriously, what are you used to driving? I'm 6'2" and going from a Tiburon to an FR-S is pretty much exactly the same.

Oops. I fixed it to say less than 3". I don't <3 the lack of room.

As for what I drive, mostly minivans and trucks. Although I did drive a foxbody Mustang for awhile.

Oh I know, I was kidding. But you do look like you're sitting pretty close to the wheel. I like driving with my knees bent too, but I've never felt cramped. I think you may actually sit closer to the wheel than I do, which is saying a lot because people I sit close enough for people to talk shit about it haha.

You can get used to anything though, so if you don't like the lack of room, slide back. After a while it'll feel weird to go back to where you started.

So I got pulled over this morning by my house.

I was going 45 in a 30 and then got lasered so I slowed down to 35 and passed the cop.

The cop started to move so as soon as that happened Im like yeap thats for me, pulled immediately over waiting for the cop to come to me.

He pulled up behind me and came out of the car and said how do you know I was going to pull you over? Im like I could tell haha.

He is like well I pulled you over for going faster than the speed limit and no front plate (Law in MD)

So he takes my license and reg and then comes back and was like where is your plate, showed it to him and said I was just racing this past weekend and had to switch back my camera mount to the license plate holder.

He is like well I know your the stig and everything but this isn't the top gear test track so here is a warning and keep it slow on the high way.

Im like OMG you watch top gear lets talk about top gear for 5 minutes and we continue to talk shake hands and I leave thinking that is the coolest cop ever LOL. It was so awesome I talked about top gear and got 2 warnings. Best morning so far haha.

But seriously tho glad you only got a warning.

Speaking of speeding, or in this case Not speeding- I got to drive home next to a lamborghini today on the parkway. I was shocked he wasnt speeding so I got to take a nice long look
It was a first for me, Normally I only see Ferrari.
Actually....I'm starting to get the feeling I see more Exotics on the road than I do Frs/Brz ............. </3
