Perhaps a stripped out race car will weigh that much, but the road-going car is closer 2800lbs. 2762 is closer to 2800 than it is to 2700, if anyone wants to argue that point you're welcome to.
I'm not saying this car won't be fun, but there's plenty to be said for being pegged into the seat when getting on the throttle. Should I actually have time to autocross this car, it will be more fun than my WRX. As it stands, it's slower than my nearly stock WRX and will not have the satisfaction of BOOST a half-second after flooring it through a turn. I can understand why people have grips about the power, but that's a problem that won't be going away anytime soon. We've all been brainwashed to believe MOAR POWUHH is MOAR BETTERER!
Do I still want it? Yeah. Am I still gonna buy one? Yeah. Am I gonna miss my WRX? Yeah.
