Yes seriously!

I don't understand why all these fools by a shitty cheap car then pretend like it's a super car and don't ever drive it. Idiots if you ask me.

Bought mine in March 2013. At almost 11k miles now. I can walk to work, and only use it for joy rides and when I need to go shopping or take a trip home.

It's a cheap car, not a shitty one. Fuel pump is shitty though!

Picked mine up used a month ago with 2,000 miles, put 1,000 on it since then.

In this case, he's 100% correct. Nothing wrong with having a nice car or treating your car well (wash my once a week and have every record from day one), but people treat this car like it's a $100k+ car. There are plently of people with cars that cost 5 times more than our little twins who still treat them like cars. Because that really is all they are-- metal and plastic. Before you make the excuse of "well if I had the money….", these people do it because their priorities are where they sould be.

Thanks dad. :rolls eyes:

It was at 6am on a satursay in 6th gear…notice it's not centered. I was watching the road and holding the phone close. Anything else?

Shitty to me is a description for quality. Not how much you spend on a car. Might I ask though if you hate the car so much, why own one?

In my opinion I own a nice car, the FR-S is just the DD. You're only going to hate on it, but my weekend car is car I've been working on since I was 16 (31 now). 1970 Chevy Chevelle SS 454 (496 ci now) that I've done quite a lot to over the years. Again though, since it's not European or Italian you probably think of it as shit also.

To answer your first question I own a FR-S because it is a cheap solution to having a DD and a racecar all in one. I wanted something I could beat the fucking shit out of and not ever feel bad about it. I could have afforded more expensive and exotic cars, but I want a tool, not a piece of art.

IMO the quality is pretty shitty, the build quality of this car is on par with shitty imprezas and carolas. Personally I think cheaper Honda's have WAY better quality than the twins therefore they are shitty.

Also who ever said I was hating on the car? Older Ferrari's are HUGE HUGE HUGE piles of shit, you can hardly drive them a block! BUT many of them are super cool. Italian's make the biggest piles of shit out there! Ask anyone with a Fiat!

Nice and cool are not the same thing.

There are people that treat their Yaris like it's a 100K car. They like taking care of things they own...does that make them idiots? Some people already have other daily drivers and only drive their 86's on nice days, or just during the summer...does that make them idiots?

It's ok for other people to do things different than you do them, and it doesn't automatically make them idiots.
