3 - it was designed to be a driver's car not an entry level car that leaves a lot on the table
4 - Willing to bet that the manual gearbox in an FR-S > v6 camaro, mustang and the Z
I would probably choose the FRS/BRZ over the V6 Mustang/Camaro as well. But then again I have an S2000 (and you have the Lotus). Not everyone is willing to drive a tiny car.
