An LSD actually makes the car better controllable in a drift. But belive me, you can hang the back out also without LSD.
If anyone should be too worried about a RWD car behaving like a RWD car and don't want to learn, how to handle such a car ..... then better buy a Golf.

We all know that the FR-S is an extremely easy car to reach a point of oversteer with, while other cars dial in understeer (such as the BRZ) to prevent it a little more. Many car reviewers were surprised to see such a raw car in stock configuration. Why do you think Subaru went with more understeer? Because most people who've had AWD cars know nothing about oversteer, and even though many reviewers said that the tail of this car comes out very naturally, it's obviously still surprising for someone with previous experience of FWD/AWD.
