People are going to line up around the block for them, but goddamn. I'm curious to see if they follow the GT-R model of drastically raising prices after a couple of years (probably to cover the cost of making them reliable).

Which reasonably affordable Honda or Toyota sporty cars weren't some "Type-R" version of an economy car?

The S2000 and MR-2 turbo (that Spyder thing doesn't really count) weren't ridiculously expensive, but they had HP/torque comparable to the FRS/BRZ. Supra Turbos were $50,000 and up new (and still are, thanks to :rice: ).

Thats a lot of money for something that isn't as pretty as a Stingray, as quick as a GTR or as good overall as the Audi R8


So really, a textbook Honda move

Sure, but all of those are better than a civic with inch bigger wheels and a type R badge, and a hell of a lot cheaper than the new NSX. FRS is definitely a step in the right direction for Toyota. I think they look decent but yeah, not enough of an improvement over an S2000 for me to consider one. For awhile I think the sportiest thing Toyota proper made was a Corolla XRS, which was literally an appearance package.

Calling any car thats FWD sporty/performance/fun is a loving shameful lie

They are, sure, but they were done so well they set a standard that other brands tried to simulate which led to the disdain for FWD "sports" cars that we've all rightfully earned

i didnt sit in a golf before i bought my gti(which i traded an frs for), but it doesnt feel like an econo-car. its pretty fast and the interior is relatively nice for what i paid.

edit: i had a wrx w/ a full exhaust that was much faster but the interior was cheap as poo poo. maybe thats what everything from the mid 2000s was like and ive since forgotten.

the frs was pretty fun to drive on curvy roads with no traffic but thats it. the gti is fun to drive even doing something as mundane as merging onto the highway.
