Toyota FT-86/FR-S

Jordo!

Yeah, but it will corner like a dump truck by comparison

That said, don't get me wrong -- I'm in the "this car needs decent HP" camp. A lot of the fan base apparently is unconcerned with how fast this thing is in a straight line.

Correctomundo. Toyota wants this to be a "cornering car", but it would be nice if it can compete with similar cars in it's price range in a straight line. I'm afraid that it will be over $25K and have under 200hp, thus making more like an RX-8 than a Z. We can only wait for the final specs to be released...

I'm fine with that. Everything has to start somewhere. At the end, all car companies car about is the bottom line. I don't think Toyota would car about performance if they could sell bajillion of the cars, like the tC.

I mean, how the heck did Scion tC got so many sales between 2004 - 2007? Price and looks. I'm pretty sure performance isn't something Toyota wants if it can't move metal to the people. Hell, there are more convertible mustangs sold in U.S. than 370z.
