By today's standards, the FT's COG is excellent.
Doesn't that make it even more sad that even with today's technology and engineering they couldn't best that though? My primary point though was that I bet there's a fair number of cars that will beat the frs in terms of cog but we'd have to find a list, the examples I gave were just ones that I knew about and I only brought up an out of production car because the NA Miata was mentioned (I specifically didn't mention in my first post on the topic). Also the frs has no sunroof so comparing it to cars that came with them by default like the rsx-s or gsr make less sense no sunroof is great IMO though

I'm also bitter that Toyota lied about the cog.
