The base 3.8 is less than 3k more than a base FR-S, and the Genesis comes with more standard features to boot.

I don't see the need to call someone out and make a joke about their argument. It's just internet bullying.
Honestly, I am not trying to bully you. However for a discussion about cars and comparison, I feel it is important to at least try and compare them as closely as possible. That would indicate the base 2.0T being a better comparison to the FRS rather than the 3.8 track version with the heavier and more powerful engine along with all the interior goodies. Just felt you were being totally unfair. You didn't need to exaggerate to make a point. Using the actual numbers would have done that fine.

Yes the FRS weights 600 lbs less than a base 2.0T. Some people will care and others won't. The FRS has 74 less hp and 124 less tq. Some people will care and others won't. It is all up to personal preference at that point.
