Forgot I even posted that, but I still stand by it. Z stays over the 86, would add the 86 at the right price.

If they get the power and weight right, it will probably be worth it.

This.

Might also be worth waiting to see what the Subie version will be like.

If possible, I'd like to keep the Z and get that as a second car.

It will weigh around 2500 lbs and have excellent balance -- it will only need ~250 hp to play on the same field as the Z.

Of course, if it only makes 180 hp at the crank, they better offer a turbo version

But we know they won't, so I'd agree getting rid of your Z for this would be a step back. I'd even be willing to bet the production version will look considerably watered down from that concept.

For some reason, whenever I think of concept cars that went from awesome concept to ultimate FAIL in the production model, I always think of the latest Mitsubishi Eclipse.

Yes, if you want to go backwards and compete with a miata and the rest of the pre-2000 era family cars.

the subaru version of this car probably would give the 370z some competition.
