It would be very close.. Would come down to manual vs tranny and the driver, but my guess is the FRS would take it

Based on the internets I heard we can smoke the following cars:

C6 Z06, All model year Vipers, Most AMG cars...seems legit

When challenged at a stoplight race in an FR-S/BRZ, observe the following (skip to 1:00):

Or hit the Rolls Royce and be fucked.

It can take on that Ferarri trike and the new Lamborghini R7.

HotLava · 07-18-2012, 04:49 PM

No, no, no. What you do is head into a corner (with a 20mph warning sign on it) at 65 MPH. THAT scares your competition! Seriously, most other cars I'm sure can corner as well as the FR-S--my Mustang did. The problem is that you can't really 'feel' when you're going to lose control and so you keep it slow in the corners. The FR-S communciates great in that regard. In the mountains above Los Angeles it's a hoot seeing way more powerful cars stomp on the brakes in the corners. Sure, the drivers don't really know what they are doing. But in twisties it's easy to ride the @@s of way more powerful cars.

So it's up to par with a wrx.

LOL, the WRX slowed down because he had made his point already. I love the FR-S, but there is no way it held its own at all. I did not buy mine for any kind of racing. It is not a fast car at all. It is a blast to drive if you like the corners though.
