Lol i loved reading this. I used to own a BRZ before i got my Z. Everywhere i went there was always someone trying to show me how slow my car really was. Just thought it was funny that someone in a BRZ tried going against a 370. BRZ's are pretty and have great handling but thats literally all they have. It was great decision switching over.

thought the FRS was modeled after the cayman...

regardless it's too slow to be shaped like that in my neck of the taffyappleville.
get stomped by minivans and camry's.

oh wait, my Z gets stomped by bald headed middle-aged losers in minivans all the time...

FRS is cool if you never had to do anything requiring acceleration.

kenchan · 06-02-2015, 11:28 AM

FRS is cool if there were no camry's on the road.

I miss JungleZ.

It's surprisingly spacious and very fun to drive if you get it on some back roads. I would never put real tires on the car because I feel like it would ruin the experience.

The whole point of that car is having the limits set VERY low with limited grip, but very fun and controllable with good balance. Once you start putting sticky tires on them they are ruined.
