Would have loved to see Chris Harris on a late model S2000 as well for this comparison

I agree, I wish they would compare an S2000 to the FRS or BRZ. Then again I feel like a lot of people discount the S2000's abilities but thats fine by me

I love watching Chris Harris. Excellent automobile reviewer. I certainly want to see him on record hooning an S2K someday. The FRS/BRZ/GT86 all have supposed horsepower issues, but nothing that a little modification couldn't fix.

Great video Marco...thanks for posting. Seeing all those deserted country roads in England (my home country) was a blast.... I learned how to drive a sports car on roads like that.

Lol careful you might get flamed for admitting to driving on public roads by the "holier than" crew.

This is a great review, he's really working that FRS hard, getting air, sliding it. I love it!

Efff, I can't wait to drive our BRZ fast!!!

Chris Harris is the only car reviewer worth listening too. Thanks for posting this! It is silly to compare to other cars though I think. It isn't difficult to determine which car will be faster really, you just test it out.

A good car is never, ever, ever, about how fast though. Anyone worth their salt already knows that. Wow, he really said it perfectly. "Enjoy things for their nature, not for their quantity." I will be slapping people across the face with that quote until the day I die.

He, just like everyone who drives in a spirited manner on public roads is actually doing it FOR the safety of regular drivers. Making sure the road is safe at a much higher limit so normal drivers have tons of room for error. I love performing "safety checks" on various mountain roads.

Same here... Not in England but in the Italian countryside, that's where I learned hot to drive and know the limit of my car. And Chris Harris is the best.
