Well said!
As I have said several times, on near identical threads, the whole future of this car was mapped out before the first one rolled off the assembly line. If they had ever even remotely considered upping the power it is already in the business plan. The model changes are not done based upon year to year ideas but laid out in a scheduled timeline for the expected life of the platform before it is even released.
This is why spokesmen such as the VP are so wishy washy on what they say since too expose those plans too far in advance can hurt both sales now and the plans for the future.
