The GT86 is more tail happy.. The Scion FRS is more kid friendly and the BRZeee is an under steering pig.
I suggest you get yourself Honda Civic with 'drift mode' as this will give you more options as to when you want to drift or not.. |

OP, you will be fine. It's a well-balanced car (I'm sure there will be a heated discussion about what that means shortly) and it is very forgiving. It's a great car for just driving, just note that giving it a boot-ful of gas in a turn may cause oversteer.
How much is a boot-ful you ask? Well, go find an open space make a 90 degree turn and hit the gas to find out |

Just closer to the same front and back for a more neutral feel in corners. |

I'm driving a 2015 FRS (aka Subaru) with manual transmisssion.
I'm 73 years old and this is the best fuckin car I've ever owned. It's rear end did tend to slip when it's tires were almost balled at 48,000 miles. And that was on pavement which was almost all tar with no rock or pebbles in it. The only time it seemed to wander very slightly at freeway speeds was when the tires were very new, car very new also. Tires not yet broken in. Best over the road, road trip car I've ever owned. I tried one on and it fit immediately so I bought one as soon as I could afford it. Similar to an Italian shoe I'd say. Don't forget to buy one. |
