Just a quick update, according a Japanese magazine (i'll scan as soon as I have time), the car weights 1150kg ------> 2540lbs.

Also, here are some recent articles.







If the weight stays around 2700lbs @ 200HP w/ 150lb tq at U.S. release, this could make it a very exciting enthusiast car similar in rank to the new Mazda MX-5s. However, I could see Scion screwing this car up and making it 3000lbs just so they could have it adjusted to the "SCION" look.

I highly believed any marketing statements from Toyota about turbo kit kit or extensive range of accessories would be totally crap. It's the same when the 7th gen Celica, MR-S, and Scion tC. All hype and very little "customization."

Apparently the newest spec sheet says that it requires premium gas. Anyone else a little surprised?

I like it. Not more than the Z, but I like it. I'd buy this or the BRZ over a Genesis Coupe, even if it has lower power rating. I think more people will switch, considering the Gen Coupe facelift looks like caca.
