Guys, frs/brz is a very well engineered car, perhaps better than the z imo, in stock form and in terms of mod friendly. Heck, toyotabaru made this car so it can carry 4 spare tires for track days.
Fundamentally speaking, in terms of visibility and weight, both very important for sports driving, frs/brz wins by a mile. Z is great, but the toyotabaru is just more purpose built in that way. Whether the op is stirring the pot or not, fact is we aren't gonna win the mod friendliness battle, the more we try to defend our car, the more we look like condescending axxholes.

Nothing against the FRS, I would take the Z over it any day. What can I say, I really like my car, as I'm sure the FRS/BRZ folks like theirs.

 At the price it's at right now, it's even failing at that IMO. When the excitement dies down a little and they stop marking them up, then it will be a better value.
