So it looks like the BRZ will edge out the Ford focus ever so slightly in acceleration
I prefer magazines over "calculators" myself.... http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/...focus_st_test/

This debate is stupid. Out of 2 slow cars, the focus st is a bit faster... It really doesn't matter much. The biggest difference between the two cars feel IMO (power wise) would be the ST has a lot more low end torque than the fr-s, but the fr-s being lighter probably feels a little more "springy"/"quick". (I haven't test drove the st so not sure...)

Just wanted to stop this from dragging on any more...
