Anyway, I feel the seating position seems to be a little bit higher than the Z. When I get into my Z, I just sink into the seat. I didn't get the same feeling when I sit into the FR-S
sucks that you couldn't test drive it. I always walk onto a dealer lot confident and with a prepared story that is mostly true, that I'm about 6 months out of a buying decision and just starting to compile data. Usually that's how I feel, but then life gets in the way and I have to pray that the DD survives a few more months lol

That's the thing about the notorious US stealership culture. I have heard numerous stories. If I were in Japan walking into a Toyota dealer, and I told them honestly up front that I have no intention of buying the car, while only wished to test drive it and see what's all the fuzz is about, they would still treat me with respect and definitely welcome me for a test drive.

I agree. It's how the game's played in the US. I have long since stopped caring about wasting salesman's time.
