This is WAY WORSE than I even thought it would be. Twisties and light weight, holy crap, this thing is slow.

7 second plus 0-60. 15.3 @92 in the quarter.

 

[Sequence]

it definitely was slow in a straight line...

 

[spikester603]

hmmmmmmm.........

 

[Eyler_Evo_X]

7.3 seconds to 60? Sad.

A 15.3 quarter mile? Laughable.

69.1 on the slalom? Meh, not bad.

0.92 on the skid pad? Moderately quick...

Honestly, though, it sounds like shit and even the wheel spin sounds girly. I knew this car wouldn't be impressive. Not to mention, it looks like it needs a turbocharger, but the engine bay will really limit the options for one.

Just proves what I thought from the beginning: I don't like this car.

Good thing it looks good. Will appeal to the Tiburon fanboys.
I'm sad its as slow as my.old 92 astro van.

 

[Eyler_Evo_X]

I think it'll take over the void left by the RX-8, slow, pretty, but with pretty good handling.

It'll also take over as ricer king.

has a price been released? better not be higher then 22k

25k....ish reported

 

[Eyler_Evo_X]

And they're really limited in number. What was it, under 4,000 for the Subaru version?

 

[MEGATRON X]

I believe its 24k for the 6 speed and 25 for the Auto

 

[Sequence]

just horrible....

Even if you assume 2700 lbs. with 200 flywheel horsepower you get about 14.6 1/4 time. Drive sucks or the power is not what they state. It is brand new so I am sure it would get faster with breakin but .7 seconds. I don't think so. Maybe it needs a driver mod.

 

[spikester603]

the more I see of this car, the more it is disappointing me.

I'm also starting to think what all the fuss was about?? just where exactly has all the hype and testing/technology been invested into? its certainly not the performance??

If its the handling then why??

I'm also starting to think it resembles a Hyndai or something?

I'm going off it.

 

[1LiLevo]

25k for the scion version

the brz is estimated no more then 30k

I'm so glad i didn't wait for this car. I really wanted this when the subaru version was suppose to be turbocharged and have 300hp.

Ended up buying my first evo instead a year ago.....way better choice.

 

[insane_DOHC]

it looks like it needs a turbocharger, but the engine bay will really limit the options for one.

That and the 12.5:1 compression cancel that option.

The Scion version may get a TRD Supercharger which may make these cars more palatable.

The reason its hyped is because its the first new RWD car to come out in a while. Also because it has a lower center of gravity than a ferrari 458 and an Enzo

 

[ElementX]

This really is sad. I hoped for much better

none of which seem to materialized into even mediocre numbers.

I really think that's cause the shitty engine.
