Everytime I go out, my gf and I fight to bring either the frs or her evoque. I hate her car, too high, feels like a boat and she hates my car, too low and crappy suspension.

I'm hoping to bring her to car meets so she would lighten up about my hobby. Hehe

You can always adjust the steering wheel.. one of the best for adjust-ability in a car I've been in.

LOL i am loving all the comments about the gf/bf car wars!

I would be down for a girls meet for sure!

My husband and I downsized to one car and got our FRS in June 2012. I decided I didn't like to share (lol) and we got our second one this past July. Amusingly enough the FRS was the only car we could agree on!

[PMPB]

Even my wifes TSX feels like driving a truck after getting used to the BRZ. I don't find getting in and out to be a problem anymore, but I sometime kick the steering wheel when I get out.

She LOVES my car though, she likes when I accelerate hard and row through the gears, the occasional tail hanging out... She never practices driving MT though, so I don't let her take it without me, and she doesn't feel comfortable enough to drive it if we're going somewhere... Meh. More for me.

I wish my girlfriend had interest in Auto X and lapping, but she drives a Jeep and likes to get stuck in various things (snow, ice, mud). At least I taught her to drive manual on my 135i so I can maybe persuade her to drive my BRZ sometime.

She hates how low it is to get in and out of...she hates how stiff and bumpy the ride is......she hates the fact that every body tells me how awesome my car is.......she thinks the back seats are ridiculous.......she hate how small the trunk space is.......she hates how "fast" I tend to drive (even though I'm not.....really).......she hates how much fun I say I've had driving home in the snow......but most of all...I think I know why she feels this way......because she can't drive a manual transmission so she does'nt "get it"!! lol
Upside.....I'm the only one ever driving it
Downside.....we tend to take her car a lot

WOW - almost identical situation for me and my wife... except that I am happy she hates MY car , it is parked for the winter and it is an auto so she could drive it in an emergency (I am diabetic).

We do end up taking the Yaris around town together - but I get to take the FR-S alone the other 90% of the time

..Meanwhile, back in Toronto, a self proclaimed "car guy" , young, successful, single male decides to buy a FRS for the simple pleasure that its an FRS. Its summer of 2013...He dates, looking for "the one"...Its not the intake he hears, nor is it the TRD exhaust, its not the darkness that falls in the cabin due to the dark tinted windows.....His ears are filled with the sweet sounds of....

"Wow, nice car!"
"What is a Sky-on?"
"What does FRS stand for?"
"What are you 20???!!!!!"
"Wow, its soooo low"
"Oh these seats are comfortable"
"Is that your car?"
"Why are you parking so far away"
"Could you park any farther away from the entrance?"

..and my favourite

"Can I drive it?"

Had to quote these......too funny.

My wife loves my car, and I think secretly enjoys speeding around curves even though she screams "slow down or you'll lose your license" haha.
