Not crazy about the rendering, but who knows what we'll actually see on display, let alone at dealerships.

Sorta disappointed to learn weight may not be coming down all that much.

No special feeling on the type of motor -- what matters to me is power to weight, flat torque, and peak torque sooner than later.

Mixed feelings on the presence or lack thereof of a turbo. It's much easier to get nice gains when you have factory boost. That turbo 4 may turn out to be a real beast with some modest upgrades. Then again, it's hard to say without knowing more details -- again, the key ones for me being power:weight.

Still 3 more years to go. I can wait.
