I’m a 37 year old Patent Attorney and I’m thinking of getting the FR-S as a daily driver but I feel way too old for the Scion demographic! My son loves the car when we test drove it and I’m also excited about the potential the little car offers for weekend race car warriors.

I might just wait out this model year to see how the platform develops and also to see what other cheap light weight driver-centric cars are coming in the pipeline.

45. Work in IT operations of major paper. Coming from RX-8, BRZ was a natural choice. My 5 y.o. son fits on the back seat just fine when my wife is not in the passenger seat.

36 - IT Architect

Seriously thinking about selling my 2010 Evo X MR Touring and picking up an FR-S. First mods would be some light 17x9 rims (Volks?) and stickier tires (Michelin PS3), basic intake/exhaust/tune (likely all from Perrin), and some KW Clubsport or V3 coilovers.

I sold my faithful Charger SRT-8 this year and bought the Evo X, but I find that I really don't get to drive it anywhere near 10/10ths, so it just feels underutilized. It's a waste really, so I'm considering selling it, the price I could get for it would pay for an FR-S and all the mods I listed above.
