There's more to it than handling.
lol?
Here's more about the FR-S...
That's EMBARRASSING... It uses PRIUS tires.... and they did admit it does not have good grip due to skinny tires. This ain't no sportscar.... it's "sporty" "econobox", and has very boring design.
It says due to slipperiness it gives you lively, playful feel??? not good for laptimes.

The Veloster Turbo (and the standard Veloster) does look better than the Lexus LF-A, especially from mid to rear. Veloster gives more "exotic" look whereas the LF-A looks just another boring Japanese sporty car. The styling is way too boring and does not stand out. Definitely not worth $400k. Veloster only costs 23k.
Laugh it up. It's all fun. But still, i am serious.
Not that I'm trying to troll, but really really honestly speaking, the LF-A does not give exotic look. The build-quality and engineering is certainly is exotic, or top-notch, but that doesn't necessarily make the "appearance" of the vehicle exotic to some people... or many people (myself included). The side and rear end looks really boring.

Veloster has that exotic look. You need to check it out in person, and also see for yourself one on the road... It looks like an exotic car from the future, year 2052. The impression is about as good as the Koenigsegg CCX.
Don't know what part you think I'm trying to be funny, but seriously, I find FR-S look extremely boring and looks cheap. The front is just terrible.
If you are talking performance, skinny tires can't give you good grip. You said "sportscar".... not enough grip for a sportscar, especially at the tracks. Is it fun to drive? I'm sure. That's about it, the driving fun side of it. If I get out of the car and look at the exterior.... Oh my God..... looks ugly. I would walk over to the Turbo Veloster and go emmm~~~~ Looks incredible. And the fuel economy there is no comparison. It is better by 11 MPG and has about as good handling with descent power. The power is actually pretty damn good for a 38 MPG sporty car. FR-S is 27 MPG. That is when you use the word "horrific".
btw, that FR-S side looks like a copycat of Ferrari 550 Maranello. Hyundai uses their own unique design but the Toyota and Scion are still copying other manufacturers designs...

ok, enough about the fr-s, which doesn't compete with the veloster, at all.
the fr-s is more like a cheap lotus elite. nice indeed though!
