This reminds me of the people with the "just because a car is much lighter it's better sports car" mentality. They made the GT86 feel the same way you guys look at its heavier competitors....A MUSCLE CAR. These guys is idiots.

I wonder if the people at Toyota were watching Initial D and thought.
How about we put a Subaru motor into an 86, perfect!

Personally I think that article sucked. Poor rationalization and didn't flow well.
