Yep the car's a little light on torque, but if you're willing to run the engine hard and downshift, it's got about the right amount of power for "spirited" daily driving and fun on backroads.
Eh your math is a bit off.
Saleen S7 = 2750 lbs / 750 hp = 3.7 lbs/hp
CGT = 3000 lbs / 612 hp = 4.9 lbs/hp
599 = 3721 lbs / 612 hp = 6.08 lbs/hp
SLR Mclaren = 3900 lbs / 619 hp = 6.3 lbs/hp
BRZ-T = 2800 lbs / 280 hp = 10.0 lbs/hp
So the BRZ-T wouldn't be anywhere near supercar power-to-weight, closer to 370z actually:
370z = 3232 lbs / 332 hp = 9.7 lbs/hp |
Nope. My HP/Weight numbers might be a bit off. But my math is pretty spot on. We're saying the same thing just in different ways.
Saleen S7 = .254 X 2,750 = 700hp
Carrera GT = .198 X 3,000 = 594hp
599 = .166 X 3721 = 617hp
SLR McLaren = .164 X 3900 = 639hp
STi BRZ = .1 X 2800 = 280
