@ Jeff
I think we can agree to agree here. That's what was so appealing about the FT concept. It is supposed to be a return to a light modestly powered sports coupe. If it can realize some decent portion of that vision in production, I think it will be a good car.
As I said, I probably wouldn't seriously consider it if it were much over 2900lbs and didn't have at least 200HP. Given that I am looking for a replacement for my DD and not my Z, those figures would be substantially better than my current DD. My Mazda 3 is a peppy little car at 157hp with 2960 lbs -- not fast, but not Versa slow. Still, it is fun to drive and I can image a car about the same weight with 50 or so more HP being even more fun -- especially if it is in a sporty coupe body ...
