I think they should add a trim level with 75 more HP but charge $25K more for it. That would troll the hell out of the whiners.

Oh wait, that was an extra $50K. Do I think the car needs more power? No. Would I sell my 2013 for a new 86 with 15% more HP and a factory warranty (like Mazda just announced for the Miata)? Yes.

230 HP is a pretty easy target to hit, for not a lot of money.

Not really something I'd be interested in, but it might be appealing to some. |

Exactly. With a warranty, no problem servicing at nationwide dealership network (I daily drive mine as primary car) and I have to deal with California smog inspection (aftermarket headers will not pass visual inspection).
For a track car - no problem hitting 230 HP. If not for servicing hassles a couple supercharger options are CARB certified. But only a factory offering will hit all my requirements.
