New Caterham 160 (Like the GT86)
Link: http://www.topgear.com/uk/car-news/C...160-2013-10-23
Top gear says the 160 refers to the 160bhp/ton which is what the GT86 makes. Cool see it's influences: Cheap, Fun, Simple, Lightweight.

They said the GT86 clocks in at 7.6 seconds 0-60? I thought it was 6.6...

American magazines (R&T, C&D, MT) usually publish the figure they test. For the FR-S/BRZ, I've seen everywhere from 6.1 - 7.3 seconds for 0-60.
