At the time I was about to pull the trigger on an MX-5 (after weeks of researching and test driving several other cars) but the salesman made the mistake of not following up with me before I was able to test drive an FR-S.
I feel the same way about Firestorm, except I wasn't fortunate enough to see it in person. My last two cars have been different types of red, therefore I've become a fan of the color and I just went with my gut feeling again.

I really like how Argento has that metallic shine in it... That, plus it's a great color for the Texas heat!

Regarding your MX-5 shopping experience... I can understand. I've had my share of experiences where I wasn't given as much importance on a follow-up... I'm sure we all have, and that's where the deal likely becomes sensitive and falls apart.

Congrats to you on your Argento, as well!
