They are two totally different cars. After a hard day of work when you want a relaxing drive, the ISF gives it to you. The shifts are smooth and the car is quiet. The fit and finish and reliability is amazing. When you want to drive aggressively, simply switch to manual for neck snapping shifts, torque galore, and a loud wait from the intake and exhaust.
The 2011s and 2012s drive differently than the previous models. The newer models have better steering feel. Not as good as the FRS, but good. For a heavy car, the handling is pretty damn good. More understeer than I like, but a $100 Fsport rear sway bar fixes that.

I love the FRS and it is a fun car to drive, but so is the ISF.
