Hmm. They could possibly go the FT-86 route and get the weight down to sub 3K lbs or they could bring a turbo into the equation I suppose...
Actually, a diesel-hybrid motor + turbo could make great power and have great gas mileage. Tuned right, boost could come on late (preserving MPG under normal driving) and the car would still feel torquey thanks to the electric motor doing the lowspeed grunt work.
