I don't know about Dubai but in the UK the Toyota has the additional niceties while the BRZ is more basic. This may lead to their BRZ being 4 lbs lighter.

4 lbs lighter is the US spec car, I didn't know he was in Dubai.

I left Deer out on purpose - seen them on the track a few times!

I don't agree with this. It's one thing for you to feel the need to track, But don't say the ones who don't track it are doing a disservice. Some people have had horrid experiences on track. Some people can't afford to go out and track I'm hoping to go out one day but I'll probabaly have my brz paid off before I do. My best is getting the FR-S after basic but he won't be tracking it at all. He was almost killed on a race track so he is terrified of them. He loves this car and he will not be doing a disservice to it by avoiding the track.

Insideline doesn't use a rolling-start like most magazines do when testing 0-60 which is why their times are generally slower but more accurate

The difference is negligible and could be due to a number of factors. As others have pointed out, different tests of the FR-S have yielded varying times, and the same thing applies to the BRZ, so it would certainly be the case when comparing the FR-S to the BRZ. But realistically speaking, even the same driver in the same car won't get 100% consistent numbers back-to-back, especially when you're dealing with a car that has a manual transmission and no launch control. Don't worry about it.
