I used to think the grille on those things looked like a bottle opener. But when they started the thing with the rats, I realized the grille was supposed to look like rat teeth.

Why would you design your car to look like a rat?

Only applies to the 17s. Anything before that and the FRS is clearly the winner since it is only RWD not AWD and is therefore much lighter.
