What was your first love, i.e. the car that led you to your FR-S/BRZ?

I'm still a huge Honda fan. I hope to add an NSX someday.

my first car was the biggest awesome POS, 93 sentra XE speakers didnt work car stalled when the ac was turned on crank windows dents scratches, 120k didnt break down. 600$ had it for 2 years lol

next was 98 200sx SE-R intake exhaust suspension tires had that for 2 years deer hopped out on me in a turn and i swerved and flipped due to understeer i was soo sad. great car .

next was my lemon 98 legacy gt had to rebuild everything what a money pit.

then went to a 95 E36 325IS M clone full exhaust intake chip suspension wheels brakes SSK. sold it cause i wanted something more.

bought the 95 E36 M3 every modd possible less cams and camber plates. great car im just tired of always playing catch up with fixing things once i finished repairing something a week later something else annoying had to be done i just wanted something i could drive and enjoy rather than drive and fix every weekend sold that

now drive the FRS

I know what you mean about repairs every 5 minutes… That was my 300ZX… I tuned it to the point that it was not reliable any longer…

The Z06 is amazing in every way!!! I was looking at the Z06 or a GTR and after driving both the Z06 was the clear winner just because of the handling and feel and the raw power that it puts to the ground with the supercharged LS7. I liked the NSX as well but for the price I wanted a new car not a used one that probably had a very hard life if someone was willing to give it up.

The ZO6 is a great drivers car and rewards a highly skilled driver. It is brutal for a novice and will put them in a life or death situation real fast. I always said if they had an AWD option for the ZO6 I would buy one… The technology that has gone into that engine, the brakes and the suspension is awesome!

BTW, Congrats on the FR-S it too is a true drivers car…

In 1985 I bought a New, Red MR2 with a MT. I have had no car that was as much fun including the 2008 335i Sport Coupe MT I just unloaded..... until now. The FR-S is great. For anyone waiting for the FR-S model to be improved in the future, don't count on it. Sure it'll be faster, but it will gain wait and push in turns. This is the one to have.

How do you like the GTR a lot of people are like saying its souless and just a big techno ball. i think its awesome! my personal favorite and its because ive driven the 3 line up has been the R34 i drove an R32 gtr an R33 gtr and the 34, the 34 just feels like hey i have technology but im raw. does this one feel like that or more computer biased?

its gorgeous though and i love most of the reviews on it

When I was in high school I wanted a Supra, but they were WAY out of my reach. So I settled for a nice 91 Toyota Soarer V8 with air suspension. brilliant car, served me well. After that I bought a 97 Toyota Soarer 2.5L turbo. Engine got bottom end knock and is now getting a 2jzgte.
Both my Soarers are from the glory days of Toyota and made me fall in love with the brand. thats mainly why I chose the 86. Hopefully in 3-5 years time I can upgrade to that elusive supra. If not Iam thinking a Cayman S/R will have to do
