Smile What you LOVE the most on your FR-S/BRZ/GT86/FT86?

Since there is currently at 78 page thread of HATE, lets try and get a equal amount of LOVE.

What do you love most about your FR-S/BRZ/GT86/FT86? and why?

Currently still in the break-in period, but in the rainy PNW I REALLY love when the back-end kicks out when I'm just trying to get to work, class, or just running an errand. Makes commuting so much more fun!

Kinda surprised no one has posted here yet. I love how freakin awesome the car looks. I looks better than cars that cost 4x the amount. I also like the attention you get from people as you drive around.

Deserves Odes in iambic pentameter.

Finally something on offer for a reasonable price that I actually like.

The supreme level of handling and shifter feel is what I love most. I get to eat cake too as this car has back seats that I need in a daily driver. But most of all, the car is sexy and modern. I just love staring at my car

Positioning and angle of the steering wheel to driver stands out. I've had many sport scars in my younger years that simply were not natural to drive comfortably and confidently. This car inspires confidence in its layout IMO.

This.

The car looks very sharp when it's in motion. I was on the highway and caught up to a stock red FR-S and was like...damn the twins look amazing as is.

Looks good, plenty of mods for it, and comes with all the options I need on the limited model.

I love the handling, the low center of gravity, the manual gearbox, the cockpit that is all about the driver, the classic good exterior styling, the gas mileage, the reliability, etc...

I love that I look for reasons to drive the car, and also often find myself taking the scenic route...

In all seriousness, I love how their is no room for my "stuff" in the cabin.

The first time that I drove the car home and noticed this... I realized what a purpose-built car it was
