right... those cars are about the numbers because they are such close competitors... right now there really isn't a competitor to the FR-S/BRZ, but if Nissan (I say Nissan, only because they have the heritage, but it could be anyone) comes out with something that is a competitor... i.e. similar weight, 2+2, 25K ish, and about 225-250 hp.. suddenly the FRS/BRZ is not the only game in town and they'll be forced to compete or lose sales.

I personally think they've had plans for a turbo model all along... there is a lot of room underhood for a top mount
