As it sits, there's currently a 360whp 2015 WRX sitting in my driveway, and yes, I have, personally, ran EVERY comparison listed in the list I previously put up. It's pretty easy to do when I'm at the track every weekend

when you said it will be faster in a straight line(see below) and since we were all talking about highway pulls I don't think the track times apply here

This is in a straight line, with stock wheels and tires, from a roll.
You have to remember that while every car listed has more power and torque, the FRS/BRZ is a much, much lighter car, in some cases, 1000+ lbs lighter.
It's the exact reason a ND Miata is faster than an FRS, stock for stock, with only 155hp.

and I already explained why the weight differences is not a big issue on highway pulls exact reason why a V10 M5 will walk away from a C5 Z06 on highway (after 120mph of course, lol) ..that's a thing that I already knew for years,as I couldn't remember the damn formula, I had to quote it
also, that pathetic powerband still has way more area under the TQ than our cars

I remember you had a WRX so we both know 360 WHP WRX would kill a Rotrex FRS/BRZ any day from roll, just say it Mike, repeat after me "WRX will win that race"
