i hope you younger kids in 370Z's dont go out 'showing' them BRZ/FRS folks wat your cars can do, and getting into pissing matches.

it's really sad watching that stuff.

i wouldnt mind having a FRS if it was for my dd. but the price + lowering and wheels, exhaust, id need to get to make it mine would put me over $30K. doesnt make much sense to me.

and too slow for my area to drive as weekend car. it would just frustrate the hell out of me.

Am I delusional for thinking they sound delusional? lol.

I think its hilarious that somehow, compared to the BRZ/FRS they think the Z is a straighline car and can't handle when the Z is praised for its handling, not sraightline speed.

But maybe thats the arguement to use when you drive the slower car? Thats what we do with the faster Mustangs right? lol

yah, when companies boast about handling, it usually means the car is slow.

To each his own, but I think the FRS looks like crap. When you're behind one, the skinny tires look like bicycle tires. The styling is sooooo ricey imo. Altezza taillights in 2013/2014??? c'mon! That was sooooo 2000-2001ish. Plus, the profile of the FRS and its Subaru counterpart looks so "skinny." The vertical dimensions of the FRS look like a car from 10+ years ago, a la the 2000ish Celica. It looks like an "Integra competitor" albeit RWD, which is its only plus point imo. And lastly, the power is a joke for 2010+ standards. I don't expect it to have 350+hp...but at least 250 out the box, with its "Honda DOHC VTEC" esque "wuss torque" (6000+ RPM to hit peak).

Again, I'm not trying to flame. The FRS never grew on me.

I guess that means any BMW that's not a M-badge, or the turbo I-6?
