Went to pick up a growler at local Brewery last night and had to park right in front. Went up to counter and placed order, when i turned around there were 5 women standing around and looking in it, so i just smile and start talking to the bartender /owner (owns a '12 GT-R) and one of the husbands of said women walked up and complimented me on the car. Says he's had several Porsche's and is currently driving a Carrera S and his wife and her friends never showed interest like that (made my day!)

Every girl I show the car to will tell me at least twice "that is a SEXY car!"
They are right! It's one of the sexiest cars under $100k |

The girls always love it, and for a young guy that is a big bonus.
The problem I've found is that the men who are of a homosexual tendency are also big on it and they seem to be a lot more aggressive with the compliments (as Seinfeld would say, "not that there's anything wrong with that")

I've gotten 2 notes (from what look like girls) on the windshield saying they love the car. Few girls tell me its so nice looking. multiple guys coming up asking questions about the car and asking my opinion on it. gets more attention than lambos and ferrari's at the local car show every week. and i've gotten ONE single thumbs down from some dude driving a 2000's cougar LOLOLOL

Today I was eating In-n-Out and a couple of younger kids spent about 15 minutes walking around my car and taking pictures on their phones.
After I was stopped at a red light and me and a late 60's Mustang were staring at each other's cars!

had the most surreal moment this morning as a beautiful McLaren MP4-12C pulled up alongside me on my way into work. He motioned to roll down my window, where he began to gush to me about how beautiful my FR-S is. As I gawked and drolled over his amazing MP4-12C, he just went on and on about the lines, asking me how well it handled and that he himself is on the wait list for one. He seemed so excited about it despite what he was in. I rode into work with a huge smile and a massive sense of satisfaction. I also made an appointment with him to swap a quick ride in mine for his, as he hadn't yet gotten a chance to drive a 6MT.

Everywhere I go I never get unnoticed, when I get out of the car I alway's have people asking me questions about it. Every morning when I walk up to my car, I see finger prints in the windows. At my job everybody is in love with my car and wants one, we have in the parking, Mercedes,BMW M3, Charger, few more BMW, infininy, but none of those car get the attention my Fr-s gets. Most peoplpe thinks it's a 45k car.
I enjoy all that, because I know it's a 6 months to a year thing after that things will settle down. |

Young guy who's part of the mall security saw me pull into the parking lot, and decided to inquire about the car...
Oh yes, almost forgot... A few days before, a modified Neon SRT owner decided to inquire, as well...

A little bit ago I went up a nice, twisty road to a place called the Squaw Peak overlook. I parked behind a bit of a hill in the middle of the parking area.
Some minutes later I heard a loud exclamation from behind the hill, "Oh no! Man! Oh man! Oh no!" Thinking maybe some guy hit my car, I looked over the hill. It was just a guy on a motorcycle, dealing with his moment of discovery as best he could. |

I went for a test drive a few days ago (picking up my car in 2 weeks!) and as soon as I got into the car at the dealership, a bus pulled over in front of me. A guy got off the bus, ran over to the front of the car and took a picture.

It's completely weird and ironic, but I received more looks while driving in the very rainy weather today compared to all the other dry & sunny days that I've driven in... Maybe my FR-S looks better in the rain, lol.
