Also, I don't know how versed you are in actually driving at or past the limit, but oversteer is fast/better than understeer is not really true. Oversteer is definitely more fun, no one can argue that. But there is a reason that the BRZ tests faster around a track than the FR-S.
My statement is intended to be ridiculous, it's just my way of trying to fit in with this crushing of the FR-S/BRZ all day everyday with theoretical hp numbers and massive hard cornering
