Is there a sub forum for old farts to laugh at the crowd who feel the need to rice out this car, but who don't spend a minute or dime on driving skills, sorry, "skillz"?
If a new tune can improve on how much of a torque dip there is, i think "blaming the equipment" is warranted... Why can a tuner so easily improve on toyotas tune for the car?

Personally, the dip doesnt bother me, im always below it driving like an avg person or well above it wringing out the car as i feel it was meant to be.

About shifting below 4k and "everyone is in ur mirror" i assume u mean tractor trailers, and not in a track/racing situation, which i imagine most of the people that the dip TRULY affects are those on tracks, who for some turns would prefer not to have to down shift just to avoid said dip.

As for the "old fart forum for people that dont know what ricer means" there is a great one. Simply press CTRL+F4 on ur keyboard, and then start talking.

Passenger Seat slides forward, but, doesn't lock forward when accessing the rear seats.
The lack of Fog lights for the FR-S as an accessory option without DIY. Still nothing in Canada.
The lack of the GT86 Spoiler that should have been an option instead of the Scion one that was just released.

Lately everyone feels the need to try to race me. It's getting annoying.

What I hate?...

Laggy drive by wire
Too many electronic 'nannies'
Engine just isn't 'exciting' at all

Don't really have too many complaints, I bought the car making sure I wouldn't have any regrets which I don't. If I couldn't live without a push button start, DRL LED's, leather etc.. I would have gone ahead about purchased another E46 ///M3. Love the car more everyday, it drives nice/smooth and looks great. The car has a bunch of potential & we're well still early in the game won't be long before a plethora of aftermarket parts hit the market.

I really do wish it had steering wheel buttons to control the radio though lol

My dog hates wearing his seatbelt, looks at me like I'm nuts every time the buzzer goes off saying that I have a passenger that's not wearing a seatbelt...he doesn't fit in the back well either being that he's 65lbs.

No shit. I'm starting to hate that that there are people who can find things to hate about this car. Looking at this list, WTF did some of you buy it for?
