They ARE supposed to be race cars. The S2000 "Club Racer" and the FRS-R(race?) are designed to be competitive stock class cars in HPDE and AutoX. And you are right I can't judge the FRS before driving it, but we're all speculating here about how it would compare. :happy0180:

Also, the nurburgring race proved that the FR-S is competitive with the S2000, even if it is down on power. So not all of it is speculation.
