Ya, but the Motor Trend article states 170 lbft of torque when most others have said ~150. Also there high end mpg estimate is 27 mpg city, which would be the same as a Honda Fit. I highly doubt a 200 hp sporty car is gonna get near the same mpg as a Honda Fit. Sorry, but I'm gonna believe brochures more than Motor Trend. And Motor Trends price estimates seems way off from everything that has been rumored previously.
