The reason why I bring it up is because the price is supposedly gonna be the same...$22k base.
Even though there is no real completion to the ft86, the genesis coupe 2.0t is the closest.
There is no way they are going to price the FRS/BRZ at $28k. I have always said $24k for the high-spec trim 6 speed manual, I am going to stick with that.
And a fully loaded BRZ 6 speed manual will be cheaper than a base WRX.
I am hoping the real engine specs are 220hp and 170 ft/lbs torque

Maybe they'll drop the bomb at TMS and give up a number around 215-220hp for the FR-S rather than all the rumored 197-200hp numbers popping up in magazines.
I'm not real familiar with Toyota when it comes to new cars, have they under-rated HP in the past? Perhaps the specs will list 200hp but once someone gets it on a dyno we'll be pleasantly surprised with a HP bump?
