That being said,I've had my 2013 since 2015.I've put on 50k+ miles over that time,while daily driving through Chicago winters,and I've yet to have a single significant issue. Other than the taillight condensation,this car has been rock solid for me. |

Well, that is "going on 10 years" isn't it?
I've had mine for 8 yrs 9 months, @180,000 trouble free miles. As far as I know there are only a handful of people (mostly on here) that had the potential to have had theirs longer.

This car has been the most reliable car that I've ever owned(only had used cars),and if I can get another 13+/- years out of it,that would be fantastic. |

I do take the occasional 200 to 400 mile trip on weekends as well, but don't always take the FRS. All told, between the FRS and my Suburban (weekend warrior) I drive between 30K and 40K a year on average.

I would purchase a Subaru any day over any one of the Chrysler Fiat conglomerate companies.

The Miata works if you aren’t very tall. And good luck finding a well cared for S2000 at a decent price. Not to argue that those aren’t equivalent cars, but the twins have some big advantages over those two cars. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Exactly. I love the S2000 an extreme amount, but you are going to pay a lot for a good one. It’s worth the price no doubt, but it won’t be a brand new, or nearly new car. And I don’t think they make good daily driver cars. The ultimate weekend car though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
