Evo says Toyota-Subaru has much better electric steering than 991

Evo gives 5 Stars for cheap Toyota and Subaru and says: 

"Via possibly the best electric steering system we've yet encountered, with much more subtle sensitivity than the new 911's system 
and a more mechnically-connected feel about the centre..."

I wish I could say that they are right or wrong but I don't have a clue since I haven't driven these cars. I still find it kind of lame to compare the 991 to the Toyota QT86 and Subaru BRZ, despite the low(er) weight, these are no sports cars by any means but to each (car journalist) his own, I guess. Smiley .

All I can say is that the new 991 steering is amazing, everything else...I leave to the professional car journalists (and car forums) to brag about.

And I haven't driven either one, so I am anxious to see how I acclimate to the new trend of EPS (I have never liked it in the past, but maybe it's improving with these new entries - Porsche and Toyobaru both).
