In short I think the GC is more of a GT where as the FR-S is a sports car.

Dafuq? I always thought everyone was saying the FR-S is hella slow in a straight line and any car made in 2012 could beat it?

2012 GC 2.0T R-Spec 0-60 is 6.8.

FR-S 0-60 is 6.2.

1/4 is 15.4 to 14.8 respectively IIRC.

2013 GC are a whole different ball game but they look like crap.

As a current Hyundai driver (00 Tiburon) and having given serious thought in buying a GC I spoke ad nauseum with another like minded owner of one I eventually drove it, a TC and finally an FRS I feel secure in my decission to buy the FRS all three have their pros and cons but I enjoyed the experience of driving the Scion the most. But that is to say MY experience others may have a different reaction, I hope that whatever you choose you enjoy it as much as possible. For its a love of driving that brings us together here yes?

Ah, I was thinking of the revised 2013 Genesis Coupes. I dont like the new front end design so much, but I also dont hate it.

So I find this thread highly amusing.
That wouldn't happen to be Tri-County Toyota in Limerick? There was a Hot Lava FR-S there last week.
