Steering for one, suspension another, ENGINE NOISE, torque - all to say nothing of actual performance - will not compare.
Torque? What torque? The base Cayman doesn't feel like it has any. I think the BRZ/FR-S will give it a good run for it's money in the hands of a skilled driver - I can't wait to see a comparison.
