This grow QUICKLY grows on you. I've been taking turns faster than I was in my Nismo 370 on coilovers.

Lots of bug splatter on the front bumper, but I hardly consider that a problem.
Otherwise the car is great. Why would you expect a problem with a brand new car anyhow? I should point out I spent a good deal of seat time in the FR-S before I bought mine. I knew exactly what the car was and I liked all of it. Best car to come out of Toyota in a looooooong time. |

This car has a fairly narrow niche. But if you're in that niche, there's nothing like it, and very little to complain about.
Many others have alluded to this, but after you've been behind the wheel a bit in the 86 you'll begin to hear it - this car has a spirit, and it's an antisocial little hooligan. It's the immature cheese in those Cheez-it commercials. It compels you to do silly things. Listen to it at your peril.
