Not everything in a car is the amount of HP and how light it is. The driver, wheels, torque, handling, etc, etc counts also. I am impressed with those results. That 135 is a MONSTER. M3 performance at 1/2 the price.........I think it beat the STI, Elise, S2000, etc etc........ Wasn't the S2000 and elise your favorite cars??, Please add the 135 to your personal list. I am curious to wait for the 370z OVERALL performance, not just numbers......

Plus if we look for under 40K performance we are left with the lancer and the 135. Personally I will choose the 135 anyday

Agreed. Good post, Alef. I def agree with you on that line. It is a freakin' beast. You should check out this thread: 425 fl/lbs of torque???? Can you imagine things you can do with 425 ft/lbs of torque?
