Maybe your car does look a bit similar to the Ferrari they have in their garage.

My car looks like way I wanted it to look, Just like your car looks the way you want it to look. Its all about self. But you and I have options. Looks , Power .. we can do what we want. Its our desision. What car company gives us that now ? No one.

I can see where the op is coming from. When I drive my FR-S I get a feeling I never got in my Corvette, 911 or the two Miatas I owned. It might not be an exotic but for the price I paid, it's doing a pretty good job of faking it.

So this Chinese guy goes to the optometrist for a followup exam.
The doctor tells the man it looks like he has a cataract, to which he replies, "Actually, I have a Rincoln Continental".

lol you're thinking so highly of your FRS. I imagine if you actually get a real Ferrari, you'll be saying "oh my Ferrari looks like the new space rocket that they just developed."

I have seen one. And I'm just using your word. You said supercar you never specified Lamborghini or Ferrari. And they have some simaler lines. And like I said before they have some of the same designs.

Poor stereotype... Chinese actually differentiates Ls and Rs. Japanese, however, only has R sounds.
