Will be an 08 Honda Fit. Which is why I roll my eyes at the complaints of lack of power.

2008 VW Jetta 2.5 SE. Once I saw the twins online, I knew I had to own one of them. I was so close to buying a super clean 2008 G37 with under 20K miles, but I could not pull the trigger back then. I now know why.

I Love your GUCCI Wheels!

I came directly from a Miata and am pleased to say the FR-S feels just like home. Though, many moons ago I did have a Celica that I adored and until I got my Miata I was on edge waiting for an 8th Gen Celica that was RWD or AWD....

Traded a 2008 Mini Cooper S in on my FR-S. I figured I needed another car that would go around corners, I already have a 95 4Runner 4x4 to go off-road, and a '69 Mustang to go fast in a straight line, and a 99 Ford F250 diesel to pull them wherever....

What are your thoughts in comparison? I think the FR-S has less feedback and steering response as those cars but has a more direct/responsive engine/drivetrain and less body roll. Plus it's fun having less traction and oversteering. You? BTW, by "Other Japanese", the OP means "Mitsubishi." Unless someone happens to have a Suzuki.

I've owned a MT '91 toyota pickup ever since I learned how to drive, and have gone through many hand me down cars over the years. '04 Sequoia, '99 Avalon, '92 535i, '98 540i. After I finished college the first thing I did was buy myself my first brand new car, and since I had my heart set on this for quite some time I went and did it...
...And still have the Pickup in good condition (besides a few dings) for practical use and DD as well =] |
