I made a terrible mistake in buying an FR-S for my wife.

I want one now :-(

Get a jetski, Everyone loves Jetskis..... Then she will need a 4wd to tow the jetski and you can only drive the Frs to work because you do important things. Then you get a jetski and a Frs.

My fiance could empathize with you on this one. My '96 Mustang was dying a slow death and I was in need of a new car. We've been following this car since it was an idea in R&D 5 years back. The day we purchased the FRS we did not plan to buy a car that day, just to test drive it so that I could quench my obsession for the car a little longer until we could find the car for us price wise. Low and behold, the 2nd dealership we visited on this day had the car we were looking for sitting on the lot and the rest is history.

I travel every other week for work, so my fiance looks forward to these times (begrudgingly...I think, maybe not) when he can have the car all to himself. However when I come home, he is happy to see me but then the next morning he is not so happy because he is back in his '05 tC for his commute to work. The FRS is in both our names, but it is my DD, so I feel bad so we try to split time with the car when I am not traveling or take the car out to dinner, etc.

If you can afford it, get the BRZ and maybe your wife will be jealous of you. I know I would be jealous of the pair of you on a daily basis if this idea came to fruition!!! :happy0180:

I got my bitch a 89 Ford Tempo. All she is worth.
She tried to fit in a BRZ i told her I did not want her bending the frame or have to call the fire department to get her out of it. She even brought a bottle of mineral oil so she could squeeze in easier.
