I'm just saying that prior to the first car being sold and prior to actually driving the car without big brother looking over their shoulder it is way too early to claim they have duplicated the magic of the miata.

I would expect a more powerful version to cost more money. don't think I ever said they should deliver more power for the same 25k. if it hangs with an sti that would be great and they could charge sti money for it. this car is different enough from a wrx that they could sell both even if they have similar straight line performance numbers.
