You may squeeze anything you like in the privacy of your own home.

you may only squeeze if you do it nice and slow pal.

I recently bought a 2013 asphalt grey FR-S. I bought the car used with 34,000 km on it. It's not brand new but seeing as my other car is a beat up 2001 Honda accord, this car is new enough for me. I never actually thought I'd spend more than $5000 on a car so thinking about an FR-S or BRZ for me was always kind of a dream. If I saw one driving by me I would just look and it and kind of dream about having a nice car. In April this year I went a looked at one that I found on Kijiji. I looked over the car and the previous owner had kept it in immaculate condition. After we talked about the car for awhile I took it for a drive, and I was immediately in love. I've had the car for about two months now and I couldn't be happier with it. I can't wait to get into it and just drive. I put over 1,500 km on it in the first week just driving it around after work. A lot of people complain about the low HP of the car, but for me it's more than enough. I've got some friends with cars running built LS engines and they even liked driving the FR-S. It's just a fun car and I couldn't be happier that I bought one.

Agree with Paladin. Every time I would see an FR-S I would just stare and wonder when I was going to finally get mine. This car has more than enough power for me. I can proudly say that I purchased the car of my dreams at 24!!!

It seems like there's quite a few of us who got these cars pretty young, I'm 19. Also coming from work vans and an accord this car honestly feels pretty quick. If you wanted to pass in my accord.... well you couldn't half the time

Dude! You think I am stock? That sounds almost as good as my TRD. I border on rice with my purely cosmetic mods and there is no shame in it. I love low, loud and long so it is dropped 1 1/2, TRD intake and exhaust and has that totally useless stock spoiler to add a coupe of inches. The only tears from that video are tears of joy and the sweet sweet note. Oh I almost forgot my highly functional fake diffuser on the rear.
