    Am I wrong if I like the BRZ more than the Frs? Essentially what are the main differences between the two?

    BRZ ranks higher then the frs on motor trend. I forget the differences. Some suspension & different features and interior design are main differences.

    am i correct in saying the engines are essentially the same? I am just wondering, I think it was Kodiak told me that you have to SC the frs, that you cannot turbo it. Is it the same for the BRZ?

    The designs share the body and engine since they were co designed by both companies, but interior and suspension are differebt

    I know the Frs is rear wheel drive. I looked on the Subaru website and it did not specify whether or not it was awd or rw

    RWD, same engine and both can be turbo'd or S/c'd. Toyota's TRD is supposedly working on a turbo version according to the rumour mill. Unsure about Subaru's plans.

    Both companies agreed to hold off on F/I options until a few years in.

    Heard the greatest rumour ever yesterday. You know how the Supra's coming back in 2015? Apparently it's going to be built to the caliber of the Nissan GTR, Purhaps better.

    The NSX is a hybrid though. Not sure about that part. I'd rather they put in a true high revving Honda engine and make it a fun car to drive.

    Edit: after reading that article below, it might be pretty fun even with the hybrid system. As long as it's a stick shift.
