Kind of. What matters more is the handling result. The FR-S is slightly more neutral than the BRZ which will tend towards understeer at corner entry. The end result is that the FR-S will be easier to get the tail to hang out, whereas the BRZ should be the more stable corner carver. Especially once fitted with stickier tires and a better alignment.
