I got the FRS because I legitimately think it's the new Datsun Z car, 2000gt. Isn't that what the Toyota sports car that spawned the Datsun rival was? Anyways. Essentially a two seater, RWD, low power, nimble, and CHEAP. that's precisely why I wanted this car. One day our children or grand children will call these classics.

Lots of people had Z cars, right?
I hope mine will be one of the ones that survives. Btw, @MisterSheep, I added you on IG. Don't make fun of my super gomo selfies. |

Anyways theres a lot of Z fans because honestly the newer Zs have gotten too heavy and lost the pure driving feel that the older 240z to 280z had. Also I personally think the newer 370z is kind of ugly. Trust me I considered it when buying a new car... but I liked the FRS more. I also agree with @MrFisty that these car WILL become a classic in years to come. It's kind of the first of its kind and brings back a lot of people to the pureness of the older, simpler cars that people learned and crew up on.

I'm still pissed they aren't making the IDX. It would have come out about when I was getting a prof. Job. I would have bought one brand new. |

The IDX was originally designed to be a direct competitor for the FRS. I remember reading that the owner of nissan liked the 86 a lot and thought toyota did a great job thats where the whole IDX came from.. too bad they are not making it.. It would be close to going back to their roots with the original 240z.
