My gawd you guys are hilarious. Thanks for all the good vibes! I used to have a Subaru SVX and setup a SVX meetup locally here in the Bay Area. A lot of hard core SVX fans in that meetup and it went really well. Maybe I should setup an FRS meetup after it comes out.

I'm nerdy, white, and work IT for a living. Nothing wrong with RWD light sporty goodness for me.

I sure hope so. Otherwise, I'll be in trouble. I've been through muscle cars, sport compacts, shitboxes, luxury euros, and never worried about the type of guy that "should" drive the car. If you like it, that's all that matters!

Kite..you think you have to look a certain way to drive a certain car? For you to ask that question makes me think that your self esteem is low? I'm not trying to be mean, but you can own whatever kind of car you want..f*** what everyone else thinks! Also, just remember....a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

ok so that has nothing to do with anything, but I just heard that on a commercial lol

Hey man I don't think its mean. What I mean to say is that while I consider myself a car guy I am not a street racer or a tuner. I had a 2002 Honda Civic Si back when they came out, and folks challenged me to street races. I'm just not that guy. But I think that the FR-S is a car I can enjoy. I'm not gonna baby it around, I wanna DRIVE.

Thanks again for all your feedback folks.

Speaking of this, I get the feeling some people here are into this revving engines at people street racing business. When I get a car I am going to be a safe, slow, law abiding driver. If you have a sporty car how often do you run into this, if you're not into the whole street racing thing?

Honestly, People confuse me. When I had my non-sporty crap can of a civic people tried to race me all the time. Occasionally I would except the challenge from a red light race but I would always abandon it when I reached the speed limit. Though when I had my Celica, an actual sporty car, no one ever challenged me to races

Maybe it's just the ricy Civics that ever get challenged anymore?
