This makes me think the BRZ is just understeery at the limit compared to the GR86 which is more eager to have the backend step out on entry. This latter part is key for someone like me who will do autocross and time attack. The BRZ's tendency to bore me will ... well ... bore me. At least the GR86 means I'll have to dial back some of the oversteer with an alignment which is what I'm definitely doing as soon as I prep for any sort of competition.
GR86 is the real win for me for competition or serious lap times.

I think you're making a lot of assumptions based on people that don't drive well. I've seen plenty of people drive loose cars into massive understeer. Also, you seem to contradict yourself. You say the GR86 is better for competition because of the oversteer, but then say you need to get an alignment to dial out some of the oversteer?
