But it's still true. I agree that more power would have helped, but I question (because of the age of frs owners) how many sale they would have lost compared to what they would have gained. In some ways, in amaerica, the people who want RWD and power consider only two options. One is a horse, and the other wears a bow tie.

I don't think we can know for sure how much better it would have worked out. They won have ended up competing for buyers of the 370z, stolen some genesis buyers, and taken more v6 mustant/Camara buyers maybe.
I do think they might have had better sales, I just don't know by how much, and if it's as big as many seem to think it would have been.

If the car was 5,000 more, I personally could not have afforded it.
