I estimate 5.9 for Manual and 6.1 for the Auto. I have a 9.0s Tahe right now, so any number will make me happy The BRZ is half the weight of my tahoe

As long as it's about as fast as the 07 Mini Cooper S my family had when I was in high school I'll be happy. So, ~6.5 seconds.

no but it was fitted to the larger Megane part way through the production run and it made almost no difference (6.3->6.1 but it also included a tyre change from Dunlop sports Maxx to Michelin Pilot Sport 2s)

Yes, "handling".
Since handling is an unquantifiable value and completely subjective.
