I think Nissan has every right to joke about our cars "only" having 200 HP. Subaru isn't paying me to be defensive of their engines.
And the S15 was around 250hp.

A stock production car with the steering and handling feel of the FR-S/BRZ/GT86 and 250hp or more is exactly what everyone in this niche wants. Why can't any company give it to us? :[
