I really have my heart set on the BRZ over the FRS. My wife has a Subaru and I generally like the brand...and I do slightly prefer the styling and the HIDs. But these reviews that have just been posted have me worried. The reviews from Inside Line, Automobile mag, Motor Trend, and Motor Authority all mention that the FRS is faster. It's mentioned somewhat in the articles, but any thoughts on why this is the case? I really want to get the BRZ over the FRS, but how do I justify that in light of the FRS being a bit cheaper and faster?

Oooops I meant to post this in the Subaru forum.
