Congrats! And thanks for the pricing breakdown.

I'm a total noob in manual driving. Never have owned one, never have driven one. So since getting the car I've been learning how to drive the car. Lots of sweat, parking lot driving, terrible mistakes, cursing, apologizing to the car. I haven't cared for anything else but the engine and transmission. It's like chasing first love in high school all over again, every time i got turned down, i love a little more

i dont have a new frs, i have a new best friend.

Lol.You should give rides to us who are still waiting to get one. I will even buy you a tank of gas for you trouble.

The FR-S is such a small car and yet somehow, you manage to look small inside it! How tall are you?

I've also only driven a manual a few times in my life, but I'm planning on getting my FR-S in manual. How did you have enough confidence to drive off the lot with it, having never driven a manual? I've been dreading that moment when I'll stall repeatedly trying to leave the dealership :P
