From that article:
Quote:
I asked Masuda-san point-blank if indeed there will be an STI-style turbocharged BRZ by the time this generation reaches the middle of its life in two-and-a-half or three years. A number came out of his mouth that raised my eyebrows. "In future, there is the thought to have as much as 280 horsepower."
Hello, new DD!

For $24k, I wish it were closer to this number from the get go. If they do eventually bump it to around 280hp I am curious what that will do to price.

I figure 8-10k would be the price of an aftermarket kit + install..
but maybe less because they will do en mass

Even at 4k or 5k, I would still be dissapointed in the price point, not the performance mind you. I just really feel like if a car company would produce a vehicle with ~260hp for around the 24k-26k range, we would have an amazing winner of a car.
