Same here. My old piece of crap made my lower half ache after a 3 hour drive to Oregon (mostly highway). But I did a 7+ hour mountain hooning day with the FRS and I felt completely fine.

It makes a very poor moving van. The number of trips required on a fun road make up for it though.

Yeah just stick something rubbery or cottonish in between and you will be all good

Between what, exactly?

I was debating taking part of the door panel off because it seems its my window buttons that vibrate. I was planning on taking up their negative space from the bottom to stop the rattling.

Here is a pic where i mean in between. For me this stopped the rattle. If you look there is a gab...for the 2015 models anyways. So Just put some thick cotton or something like rubber in between there to prevent movement and rattle.

Hmmmmm what do I hate the most?...

Crickets.
Stock Stereo System.
Small Stock Exhaust tips.
Weird gas nozzle seating (I can never seem to get the right seal)

But I still love the car and wouldn't trade it for the world

This ^^. First car I've ever owned that I have to hold the damn nozzle the whole time I'm pumping gas, because it doesn't "hang" properly hands-free.

Interesting, never had to do that...
Is it because of a vapor recapture system on the pumps there (I know some of them are pretty huge)?

Seats collect lint better than any lint brush I've owned
Crickets moved in at 650 miles

Love my car, these quirks are annoying.
Second gear is a pain? Explain. Getting into or making it work? I find it difficult to perfect it.
