I finally did it...I traded in my 2013 Scion FRS for a brand new 2013 370Z w/sport package. Both cars are black and both have manual transmission. I owned the FRS about a year now and it was great at first but never really what I wanted. The car looks fast but on multiple ocassions failed to perform. I understand the whole drivers experience blah blah blah but you cant experience that when you are in traffic 5 days of the week and need to drop 3 gears just to have enough power to get up and go to pass someone. The big hype of the FRS really isnt experienced as often as one may think. I dont track the car and I dont really make it out to the canyons here in AZ to get onto the twisties. Even so, I think the 370Z outperforms in my mind over the FRS. Sure there are FRS' out there that could whoop a 370Z but it would have to be heavily modified...im comparing stock to stock.

Anyways, I am glad to be apart of yet another forum and look forward to reading what this place has to offer.
