Putting my own brand alignment aside, this thing is still going to need some real balls (not just peak HP numbers for magazines and fan boys) to hang with the domestics in that category. I can say with certainty that I have never been impressed with a stock Asian factory RWD sports car. That includes the TT Supra, 300Z, S2000, G35, RX-7/8's, IS-F, LFA, 370Z, 3000GT/GTO etc. They talk the talk sometimes but do not walk the walk. Some of them are very, very good looking but do not deliver in the speed/fun department.
JMO. And I can guarantee I'm not being closed minded.
