Steering wheel stiffness?
I haven't test driven a FR-S yet but I was curious how stiff the steering is. Right now I have a 350z and the steering is pretty stiff compared to other cars, which I like a lot.

The steering is not stiff, it takes a little push, but not that much. Remember, its electric so it feels different than hydraulic steering.

It doesn't feel electric, more like a hydraulic type steering. Feels perfect.

Steering feels fantastic. I drove a Genesis 2.0T today and in comparison the FR-S is FAR better feeling. The Genesis was vague and sloppy in steering.

steering feels like it can get you out of trouble at the very last second, like at a blind drop turn with on coming car.
