I'm really surprised so many of you are so critical of this car.
I looks to me like it has a lot of things going for it:
1) It's a really nice looking car. It looks way, way better in person than in pictures, IMO. In fact, I think it has the biggest difference between pictures and in person looks than any other car I've seen, ever. The first time I saw one on the road, I wasn't sure what it was until I got right up to it, even though I'd seen it many times in pictures.
2) It's a light weight car. I think around 2750 lbs. Very light by today's standards.
3) It has good power. 200 hp./2750 lbs isn't bad at all. It's not intended to be a V8 mustang kind of sports car. The power to weight has to be better than a Miata, and everyone raves about how fun a miata is, etc.
The FR-S does 0-60 in 6.2 seconds, so I'd hardly call it slow or underpowered.
4) It's rear wheel drive.
A relatively small, lightweight, 200 hp, RWD, reliable good looking coupe for $25K, I think it's great.
