Eh, the BR-Z and the GT-86 look cool, but 200 hp? I mean that's pretty anemic for cars nowadays, and when a mini cooper S could potentially beat you off the line, I'd say you might have an issue. Do like that they''ll be release a mechanical diff eventually, but I'll wait until they release a nice turbo model before I get too excited.
Honestly, though I'm not sure what market these guys are trying to break into. I mean, the BR-Z is gonna be around 24k, pitting it right up against some pretty popular hot hatches like the GTI, which is already inundated with competitors. I suppose its nice to have something that's RWD that fills the gap that was vacated after the s2000 was ended, but still... it doesn't seem like this base model will be much of a performer.... I'd rather just save the cash and buy me a 370z
