Now go drive the FRS. It will remind you of a Cayman at 1/2 the performance. I almost bought one but the new Miata maybe a better drive. The lancer Evo is another great driving car with great steering but as you realize the Cayman has the whole package due to weight balance and terrific geometry give you superior driving feel.
I had driven the Cayman S a few times, but not the 981 - it had been a while. And while I remember the older version being good, this was just insane. I really can't imagine a drive being boring in that thing. It was that good.

I have driven the FRS - my buddy has one - definitely a fun little car and another very good value proposition in its own right.

I just went back to the dealer to stare at the one I drove today - white with black wheels.
