If you are a novice to track, the BRZ is the better car... And let's be clear here. The FRS is not a tail happy car. It's incredibly planted and has fantastic balance. everyone i know that has driven both says the same thing. and once you learn the car you understand that it's not tail happy at all, just easy to pitch in on entry.

If you have an FRS or BRZ. Do yourself a favor, take it to the track at least once. i agree

Randy recently drove my car at AMP had a very similar opinion as the Ajay. FRS more fun, BRZ better behaved and easier to push. as far as the understeer Randy says that the BRZ has more stable corner manners and he can trail in corner entry a bit better and with more consistency. FRS rotates better but is quicker to snap around at the same time. it depends on driving style really and how you like to corner if you're going to compare the stock cars
