im sorry i meant around 2600 lbs. i know for a fact none of your previous cars weighed near 2600 lbs.
This car was manufactured and marketted as a lightweight low horsepower fun good handling car. It's not an audi (i own one as well) It is a lightweight tossable enjoyable car.

Here's an idea. Sell it.

Dropped panties quicker than a 2006 Rally Red Honda Civic Si with a black vinyl hood

Or a nasty black Hyundai Accent with lime green calipers and plum purple wheels

Or a white VTAKKED CRX

anyone that tries to place a value on their cars by the amount of female undergarments that fall off by looking at the car clearly has other problems..imjussayin

in related news however i have had two females ask for rides in the car and laugh went it got loose in the turns...P.S. their panties stayed on. I dont want to clean the seats.

Sorry, but I'm not really into picking up chicks by showing them how much I overcompensate by trying to drive a super cool car.

If you think the FR-S is cheap and made with terrible quality compared to a 90s Taurus or Mustang, you are either a troll or just confused. I've had a Taurus and boy was it a piece of junk... Buddy of mine had a 2001 'stang and it was an even bigger piece of junk.

I used to drive a light blue BMW z3 convertible which got plenty of female attention. I even dated a girl for a year because she saw my car and wanted to ride to the beach with me. It was still a crap car.

You're judging the quality of your car by the reactions of people who probably don't know anything about cars.

False. Im judging the quality of this car based on the lack of quality control when it rolled off the line. I dont expect much - maybe a nylon fastener where needed.

Off topic, but all non-M package Z3s are shit. Any BMW tech will tell you that in a heartbeat.

I'm going to guess you were a lot younger when you had that 00 mustang

Reasons:
1) you say you got more ***** in the mustang. Girls don't really care about cars so it probably just means you're fat now.

2) you clearly didn't poke around the mustang much, or else you wouldn't be complaining about the frs construction. When you're young you don't really care about these minor things, as long as it gets from a to b. Now you're old and cranky and wasting our time with threads like this.
