I also have this concern about lacking in power, but in a slightly different way. I suspect that the FR-S will be similar to the S2000 for
daily driving. Specifically, unless you gun it, healthy teenagers on BMX bikes will be able to out accelerate you from a dead stop.
In an S2000, one already has to give what I think is more than enough healthy acceleration to get ahead of those psychotic Honda Odysseys and (V6) Accords out there. Similarly, the FR-S is going to be challenged by all those Siennas and (V6) Camrys.
Yes, I know this is irrational, and in no way am I suggesting that drag racing on the street should be allowed. But come now... healthy+teenager+bike.
