Anyone one else hate seeing other twins?

What's up guys!

Is it just me or do you guys hate seeing other twins on the street?!

When I bought my car at first it was cool seeing other twins on the road. But now I see 3-4 twins a day! I feel like it takes away from the cars uniqueness, and almost everyone has one like a damn corolla or civic!
Toyota and Subaru needs to start making less twin, but I guess it's too late.
This is my annoyance with the car...there's too many!!

....Or worst, seeing a heavily modded stanced frs or brz
Why the fuck do people do this to a sports car? Doesn't it take away from the whole purpose of this car, the agile and nimble yet great performance?
....Am I missing something with the goal of these kinds of mods?!

How do you guys feel about seeing countless other twins?
How many a day do you spot?

I like seeing other twins UNLESS they are riced or beat up (obvious signs of an unworthy owner).

I got the car because “I” like how it drives and also how it looks. I don’t really care what others do. Personally I would rather see more because that will modivate Toyota/Subaru to continue the FT86 or similar car. I would hate to see FT86 sales drop and then get pulled and never be replaced.

Hahaha guess its just me then!

To me its like when you buy a special toy and you love it because its one of a kind and everyone wants to see it and talk about it! But after a while you find almost every kid in school already has that toy and it's no longer special, because people are constantly use to seeing it...now its just "meh, another one of those toys".

LOL not sure if you guys get what I'm trying to say

I get what you are saying. I just don’t think the FRS is like a Civic. Sure I see a hand full of FRS’s each day. But I see hundreds of Civics each day. I’m just not making a mental note of it.

Just think of all the times you look at the clock and it says 9:11. That time has always come two times per day. But doesn’t it seem to come more often after the 911 attacks?

I love seeing stanced twins! Because then my car looks that much better in comparison.
