I don't know how they could, in good conscience, call this an FR-S/86 sedan.
Really? If you want a current example of how this exact scenario plays out look at what happened over at MINI... somehow they got from the delightful and cheeky R53 to the flabby Countryman and bizarre Paceman within one generation. If the new F56 is any indication they show no signs of getting smaller, kind of a shame.
