Actually, it should be "easy pass feature standard"!
The driver (in vid) admits that the FRS with stock power is at quite a disadvantage on that tracks with it's fairly long straights and sweepers. The car that passed it is a race prepped turbo.
Might not be the fastest, but I love the car, and on small back roads it's easy to get going dangerously (and very illegally) fast in very little time. I don't get all the folks who buy a 6mt 200hp four cylinder and then are shocked when a 300hp 6cylinder auto minivan beats the car in a drag race. Go buy a mustang or camaro if you want stop light race power. I stepped out of a 425hp SRT and I'm perfectly happy with this.
OTOH, where are all the videos with the same minivan or whatever attempting to keep up with the FRS on twisty back roads? (Right, those videos don't exist because they would all end with the mini van wrapped around a tree and exploding in a ball of fire).
FWIW, if they decide to stick the WRX turbo engine with 368hp/250lb-ft in the FRS... I'm buying one!
