He actually did like it. It was a conditional liking of it, because it was a fun, affordable sports car. He just didn't drool over it like he did the Viper or some other super car.

He uses Lamborghinis as DDs... He's driven the Veyron and the Pagiani... He has a Blastolene special and a jet bike... so to expect his skirt to be blown up by an FR-S is a poorly managed expectation at best.

I'll take my 86 over his steam cars or tank car any day!

I don't know - if I were in his financial situation, something like the steam car or the tank car would be a blast to drive on occasion. They definitely aren't as good of a daily driver or even second car as the FR-S/BRZ though (they work better as a 27th car, or something like that).

It doesn't matter if you drive a pagani or a ferrari as your daily driver. If you like cars you will respect each one equally and understand it. The 86 is a great drivers car, an amazing one, but it just lacks power through the rev range.
