I'm not advocating that the car ONLY have a stock FB, I'm saying make a cheaper, stripped volume version. Like I said $19k. Do it, Scion/Toyota.
I can add power to a motor. It's tough to strip weight in a nice and comfortable manner.

Make me a $19k version with a stock FB20, Toyota. Make it a stripper (options, not dancer) and keep it light.

140hp for $25k, no that wouldn't sell. But as Dimman mentioned 140hp for under $20k would be very very tempting.
