Its mainly the temperature difference that seems to help...been very nice the past few weeks with the cooler weather, summer finally seems to be on its way out. Humidity is usually highest at the lower temperatures though, if you look at Temperature/Humidity charts you will see the 'phase shift' going on where humidity drops as the temperature increases throughout the day and rise during the night, peaking just before sunrise.
Very Hot temperatures + humidity feels much worse on your body than cooler temperature + higher humidity levels though. Going from highs in the high 90's to low in high 60's that first time had a very noticeable effect on the car.... It's almost nice enough to not have to run the A/C now, but still not quite yet...
Things I have noticed the FR-S loves:
- Cool Autumn weather
- 40% fuel level (optimal handling)
- Lightweight wheels and tires, and with the tires being slightly smaller in diameter
