For example:
First time I sat in my FRS (yes, I bought the one I test drove lol) it felt engaging and special. And that was before I turned the key. The Genesis felt like every single other borimg car I'd ever driven. If you can swing it, try them out back to back.

The Genesis feels more...refined. Like theres less road noise, the interior feels cushier, and the ride feels smoother.

But with all that I felt less connection to the road.

The BRZ is more raw, you hear more road noise, the transmission has more feedback and you feel like you are wrangling a beast when you are putting it through its paces.


Both are great cars dont get me wrong, its just what you want out of your driving experience.
