So here is what we have determined this car is NOT...

This car is not "affordable" as it was once meant to be.
This car is not fast, and not considered a "drag car" so being slow is OK.
This is not a drift car, so let it go.
The back seat can fit toddlers at best.
The trunk can probably fit your backpack AND your duffle bag!
The car gets worse MPG than a 505hp Z06 Corvette that weighs 600 pounds more.


This car is affordable compared to similar sports cars out there. Honestly the economy wasn't the same in 07 when project was started nor in 09 when they made everything official.

Apparently all the reviewers are saying the faster you go is better, plus the temptation to get on the freeway faster than the next guy isn't really there. I mean, I wonder why so many people like the miata's, ITR's, 240's, etc and all those are < 200hp stock and if more - aftermarket (like this car is going to have)

Backseats are for insurance not humans lol

not sure why trunk matters if backseats fold down, and apparently you don't want them, so you can remove them completely lol

And sure okay MPG is average, but cars of this caliber i.e. - S2000, didn't really have good MPG's anyways. It could certainly be better. But if you want MPG you have other sport car options

Good day!
