So after some careful consideration of life events, and other monetary related items(mainly surrounding having money for a house), the time has come for me to consolidate to one car. Thus I have sold my truck.
That leaves me with one car, the Miata. Hmmmmm, not exactly the best car to have as your only source of transportation. Great for top down fall driving and autocross, but not the most capable option when you need to haul something, or drive in the winter. The fiance and I had a long talk, and I got the okay to order an FR-S, with the stipulation that the Miata goes with the purchase. The Miata has been a great car, and I love everything about it, but with the need for something slightly bigger and more usable, while maintaining the sports car stuff for autocrossing, the FR-S will fit the bill much better. Oh and also, they're awesome.
I've been watching the development of the Toybaru twins for the past few years, excitedly monitoring to see what the joint project between a great sports car manufacturer, and an automotive behemoth that has lost its way on the road of performance, could produce. Everything looked good on paper, and I was excited to check the cars out. At an autocross a few months ago, I finally had the opportunity to see both cars in person, and ride in them. Man was I impressed with everything about them. The handling, the simplicity, all of it was great. I knew it was the perfect car for me.
The dealer told me 3-6 months when I ordered, but I hear they are coming much sooner. Can't wait!
