are you guys doing your tests using a wheel or the DS3 controller? that could make a big difference as well. I drive with a Logitech DFP wheel and pedals, and from my limited testing of all 3 back to back I feel like they handle the same. BRZ motor sounds a little deeper for some reason, and maybe it's the sound and placebo effect that results in different lap times... or you are getting more familiar with the car and track with each lap and so you may improve with the last car tested.

And maybe it's my driving style, but to me all 3 cars feel like they mostly understeer, and I actually have a hard time getting the rear wheels to break loose by giving it gas mid-apex... only on really tight turns do I get squirmy on exit. I found I kind of have to throw the car into a turn in order to get the car a little upset before I can initiate oversteer. Did all my testing on Comfort Soft tires to be consistent.
