GT-R: Computer/AWD makes you look like a driving god when you aren't. Disconnects you from driving.
FR-S: Puts the driver back in control. Immerses you in the motoring experience.

GT-R: All about track times

FR-S: Not at all about track times


Or something like that...


Why are those two cars even next to each other?

Exactly.

The 370Z is their baby.
