More people would be willing to try and push boundaries and experiment when they are not hit by a giant wall of cost.

Can’t argue that fact. You can buy a k series for $800 at your local junkyard. But you ain’t build no nitro all motor 4 cylinder for under 20k. Finding a good hatch shell will cost you 2-5k. 4 piston racing those motor builds cost just as much as building a VQ. Will these VQ or the Z platform be anything close to where civics probably not. Now you have soho getting closer to the 8’s and NA guys knocking on the door to 10’s it may bring some much needed attention to the platform.
