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.

That's not entirely true. From the all the articles I've read either one or the other handles better or accelerates faster....I think it was motortrend or car and driver that recently said that the different numbers recorded by these cars are due to driver error and testing conditions. Yes the suspension set ups are different and their weight may differ a little, but the cars are basically identical physically and in terms of speed....
