I totally would understand your point of view based on all the mb chatter (here and others) about the BRZ/FRS lack of straight line performance. A common refrain from the Genesis coupe guys is that "a camry V6 smokes the BRZ...". Well, according to Car and Driver, Camry SE V6, 1/4 mile in 14.3 seconds. BRZ limited, 1/4 mile in 14.9 seconds. Hyundai Genesis coupe 2.0T (the one with all the BOOOST!!), 1/4 mile in 14.4 seconds. Wait, that's slower than the camry also, right?
HP and 1/4 mile aren't everything, you also need handling, and the 86 has loads of this right out of the box.
