The amount of butthurt (pun intended) over minute suspension differences in cars these days is ridiculous. The FR-S is a stiff sports car yes, but no more so than the GT-R, lotus, brz and other cars I have driven.

I swapped my FR-S to RacecompEngineering BRZ springs, only a tiny perceived improvement. Swapping to fatter 245/40/17 tires also helped.

Biggest issue is shitty roads and there is not a whole lot any sports car can do about that.
