FR-S trade in... on what?
So I am not happy with my fa20... I have considered boost but I am not sure thats the answer.
what would you trade it in on? no fwd, prefer rwd but awd would be ok. |

Kind of need to know what you're not happy about, in order to recommend something else...

Used C5/C6 Corvette and Mustang Boss 302 are all decent handling American RWD cars that got plenty of power. |

Here you go dude..
It's RWD and I think you'd look just right in it.

I agree with @OrbitalEllipses. A sed C5 Z06 will give you decent power, probably cost about the same and they handle really well....even stock. Good luck in your search

yeah i dont think i can do the vette thing...
i really like the frs, but to spend half the value of the car to be able to out run a mini van when merging with no hope of reliability is a drag. |

A used Vette will do all of those. An STI will not slide around...easily anyway. I'd skip the Gen coupe for a track-capable car. Probably the 370 too.

Need a back seat? Consider a 6.0 GTO? It's not light at ~3700lbs, but a great highway cruiser and plenty of power.

Then buy the best performance car for the money. C5 Z06. If your budget allows mid 30s, C6 Z06.
