lol...

 

Haha, funny!

 

I really like the looks of it as well.

 

Being laid off sucks donkey ****, even though I have been through it a few times now, it doesn't get better. I cannot wait to get the **** out of my career, only 2 more years I can say **** you...

Veloster Turbo confirmed. ~204hp is the current guess. I saw one (NA of course) this weekend. Didn't look too bad.

I think I'd take an FT86 though. I had a Scion before. Economical, fun, very cheap to own (gas, tires, sway bars and springs).

 

I'm 99% sure this will become my new daily driver when I graduate in May.

That is a nice looking car.

 

the production model looks nothing like that. It will still be very nice. But i'd prefer the subaru version if reports of it having 300hp vs 200 for the scion are true

 

i heard that too, but i also see all the press releases saying the subaru and scion will both be NA and there isn't a STI version "officially" released yet. honestly the release of this car is almost comical at how long it has taken and how poorly they have disseminated the information

 

Yep. Once again, production engineers ruin a beautiful concept.



With TRD goodies...

Yea the TRD stuff looks like crap. It is still a good looking car, but definitely not as good as the concept. They muted all the lines that made it look so unique. Still, worth looking into.

 

The most important feature of that car is the weight:

2662 ponds (1210kg) for base manual (~ 2580 lbs dry weight)
2706 pounds for higher trim manual

Current day Miata MX-5: 2480.

If I bought that car, the first thing I would do is throw an LSx into it.
