And now you begin the sweat phase. Your over-compensating body-thermometer continues feeding heat energy to your pits and crotch, which in turn begin seeping moisture faster than you can remove garments.

HUHWHWHAAAT. Will trade my new Sportwagen for this. Just debut this with an even trade VAG loyalty program...

I know the answer is always Miata... but the FR-S clearly has better fuel consumption ratings.
