I don’t think it’s unreasonable or unrealistic at all to want a more powerful engine in the 86. It’s not a dangerously slow car, nothing sold in North America is. (Is the Smart car still sold here? Lol) But the twins are sports cars that should feel quicker IMO. If they cost a little more because of that it would be worth it. They should all have the Sachs dampers, Brembos, and MPS tires also. The only people who buy this car are enthusiasts, with some exceptions I’m sure. So why doesn’t Toyota/Subaru embrace that?
