Please elaborate on how my post is retarded
If you think the performance of the 2.0T Genesis is comparable to the mustang and camaro at the same price point you're delusional. The 3.8 competes with those cars not the 2.0T.
Ask most people on the SCCA forums what their choice would be for a fast affordable, and competetive car, for someone who may need to use rear seats and you get two answers, the WRX, or the RX8, as far as I'm concerned that is part of the market the FR-S is getting into (granted rear seat usage will be more limited in the FR-S but the point of utility stands)
Furthermore the Mini S is almost Identical to the FR-S except for it being front wheel drive.
People who knock that car have not seen it compete.
Mini 2700lbs 180hp
FRS 2600-2800lbs (hopefully) 170-220hp (range most people think will happen)
both have small rear seat, both will get good gas mileage, and both will cost around 25K, it's retarded to think there isn't a comparison to be made here. The biggest difference between the two cars other than drivetrain will be center of gravity where the FR-S will win hands down
