I'll let you know when I find a turn that my BRZ is slower than my "MOAR POWAAH" BMW through.

Go for a ride in a BRZ/FRS if you can, if you like FR's (which you must), you're gonna like it.
That seems to be the benchmark for an FR. I do want to take one for a test drive through some turns. I imagine the steering may be a little quicker, the car easier to toss around a little bit due to the weight difference and for the grip to be a little less than my M (275's out back). The balance should be comparable (it's 50/50, right?).

It's a great package and one I'd definitely consider buying if I didn't already have the M. The power would bug me though, because while I'm not doing Gymkhanas on the street, you better believe I use all 332 horses from time to time
