There is actually a track review coming out of the new Genesis 2.0T R Spec vs the 2013 Scion FR-S. I was at the track when they filmed it. The Genesis consistently got faster lap times than the FR-S.
Hmmm, yeah. If you watch the video, you notice that Scion jumps from slowest to fastest just changing tires. This thing is "fast" with grippier tires. I don't know is it faster than genesis coupe, and i don't even care. But i know that tire cost of this vehicle are very reasonable! You can buy new set of tires with reasonable price and still be fast, you cant do that with r-spec GC
