BRZ is a better value, IMHO, but the difference is almost negligible. I loled at the third option and even more so when I saw people voted BRZ 2:1.

Not to mention that will put you half way towards a great set of coilovers, or one hell of a stereo system that would put the BRZ's to shame.
So don't stress out too much.  |
If it was just Nav and HIDs it would be worth the cost if that is what you want. I like the BRZ more myself, but I don't need Nav or HID.

4. Preference in suspension setup for the FR-S because I plan on keeping the suspension stock until time to replace components from wear.
5. Availability - the BRZ will be sold in a much more limited quantity than the FR-S = MUCH longer wait time to get one. Subaru themselves have said they want the BRZ to be a rarer sight than the FR-S on the roads.
6. Subaru dealership - only one, way far away : plenty of Toyota/Scion dealership close by in comparison.

No# 6 is what gets me the most. I could wait, weight difference and price is small. But the nearest dealership is well over an hour. Annoying.
