If you want a proper sports car, get a Supra, RX7, 370z, Porsche.

Yikes dude... i wouldn't take it that far. lol
-the Supra handles like shit.
-the Rx7 engine might not even last long enough to finish the track.
-370z? sit in a 370 and an 86 and see which has a better seating position for a "sports car"... also... base 370z is like $28k new... about the same range as a high end frs-brz. it also shares the same base motor as a Nissan Maxima and every other v6 Nissan has to offer... i guess it is also not a sports car?
So Subaru and Toyota had to joint develop an engine... d4s and all... for an economy car?
so horsepower is what makes a sports car??? so i guess the lotus elise with 180hp motor that is the same motor in a 2006 Toyota Corolla XRS not a sports car??? the same motor in a celica GT-s... not a sports car???
The Twins are sports cars... that happen to be affordable.
...Subaru/Toyota even went as far as making sure the cargo space was enough for a set of 4 wheels and a jack... for what? to get groceries? lol. The twins were built for a purpose. being an economy car is not that purpose
