FRS/BRZ are comparable to the original M3. Similar specs but at a much lower price point. Now *that's* progress. The M3's devolepment has just been to add ever more mass and power, not at all true to the ideals of minimalism, light(ish) weight, and maximized FUN.
Progress is, essentially, re-creating a 90's BMW, and selling it for less? That's an interesting take on progress.
