it's true as what others have said, once you drive an FRS and chuck it into a few corners, the addiction begins!

Technically I did. I said I will take it based on appearance alone. Was well into the process before I drove one. I had come here and did some very rapid research before I test drove it. The one I test drove actually belongs to somebody on here but I don't remember who it is.

Plenty.

Some, not all, but some regretted it due to "lack of power compared to v6 camary" and traded it in for a mustang.

At least that's what I've read here.

Agreed. Went to Toyota to trade my A4 for a used Civic Si (going for MPGs, not style). Was budgetting around 15k. I saw a used fr-s and asked to test it. I've ridden in my friend's fr-s but had never driven one, so I figured I'd take the opportunity to experience the 86 from behind the wheel. Next thing I knew, I was rushing to work in my very own fr-s. My boss was pissed because I was almost 2hrs late, but I couldn't stop smiling after driving this thing. Lesson learned. With this car, you drive it, you buy it!

Good thing you didn't get fired or you'd be rushing the car back to the dealer
