Default So I stopped at my local nissan yesterday to

take a look at the new front bumpers. I didnt care for it to much. It gave me the impression of a more feminine look for some reason. I cant explain it. It didnt take very long, and I was bored, so I pulled into the Scion dealer next door to check out the FRS.

They had just received a black manual transmission and it was on the showroom floor. There was a woman maybe in her mid 40s with her son who was about 16/17 standing next to it looking at it. I sat it in it and gave it the once over and the salesman asked me if I wanted to test drive it. I said Id love to, but I dont want them having to pull it off the showrom floor.

He then proceeded to tell me how well they were selling and they cant keep them for more than a couple of days. In fact, the lady who was there with her son had just purchased the automatic one that they had on the way to the dealership later in the week for herself.

I thought the interior of the car was ok, but on the lower end of course, but I liked the seats. I found them very comfortable and supportive. The car itself has a nice look in some ways. It reminded me of a baby LFA from some angles, but the rear quater panel area kind on turned me off. It reminds me to much of the gen coupe. The front and rear looked sharp as all hell.

I hate to be that guy, but Im starting to wonder if this vehicle will end up turning into a chick car. I was really surprised to hear that the car was going to be the mother's and not the son's vehicle. What do you guys think? To early to tell?
