They could sell the crap out of an STI in the mid-$30's will upper 200 horsepower and mid 200 torque.

To enthusiasts for sure, but it's a bit of a harder sell to the general public who will look at the hp numbers and the price, and compare it to the pony cars.

Wonder sometimes how the division no cyl (displacement) of Japanese RWD Sports Cars versus American will grow...

390Z to have a 4Cly Optional?

Any time I read an article and the writer puts something like " Sad, that" I won't read any more of it. Come on if you are a journalist write like one not some dumb kid trying to be cool with his twenty something friends.

I do not, but I expect someone who writes for a living to use proper English. I am a high school dropout and still use better grammar.
