Putting serious hat on for a minute, do yourself a favor and take a new one for a test drive. Seriously. It works seemlessly, firm but smooth. It's a better drive than both the ralliart and wrx. But its not what I would call soft....
And the gti's are not $50k?, there's 3 here in Darwin for ~$42-43k drive away (all DSG), and there is a fully spec'd one with sunroof and leather here for $47k drive away. Cabin space is very good actually, I had plenty of room in front and back, and I'm 6'2". Seemed more room than my honda euro actually, but that wouldn't be hard. But how is a tiny coupe going to have more room than this, if this is one of your points? Practicality. Another reason why FT86 will fail against ralliart/wrx/gti at this $40k+ price. The Scirocco R will be ~$50k drive away too, which will no doubt be another nail in the coffin.
As I said before, the FT86 would want to be super special if it wants to compete with this $40k+ market... and you know it.
