My friend owns an fr-s...decent looking car, small as shit though, sitting in it feels weird because you're so damn low to the ground, but dat racecar feel doe....I've driven it, it's slow as all hell and the torque dip in the mid-range is awful, but as far as handling is concerned it's absolutely superb. It might have been a letdown to all of the fast and furious bros wanting a hellafast whip, but when you're hitting Porsche 911 times on the nurburing with a decent set of tires but otherwise completely stock, I'd say you got your money's worth.
TL;DR it's a fun car and I'd definitely consider one as a daily if I lived anywhere that didn't snow. My friend is essentially forced to call out of work every time it snows lol because we've been getting quite a bit lately, not just dustings.
The driving position is probably the best of any mainstream, affordable car. This is my first winter with my brz and its fine with snow tires, just have to be careful with ground clearance. I think slow as hell isn't quite fair, but that's subjective. I
I sat in a 2015 sti, and although it is quite nice, the driving position felt no better than sitting in my sister's corolla
