Yes I agree with you for the most part. All manufacturers go to certain lengths to save weight for the reasons you stated, however, some go further than others. You still have to stay within the scope of the project.

A Ford Mustang COULD weight in at 3000lbs, but that would require some interesting engineering and some more expensive materials. Reducing the weight to that amount would simply put the vehicle out of the cost bracket they were aiming for. That's all I am saying.

@ SUB-FT86

Exactly. I didn't think it needed mentioning lol.

@ Mr.Jay

Again, exactly! I will admit OPENLY that the 86 will out maneuver the GC and at the same time be more "in tune" with the driver. Both are completely different class and made for completely different reasons.

GC was designed, engineered, and made to put Hyundai in the GT coupe market against the likes of Infiniti, Ford and, dont kill me, BMW.

86 was designed and engineered not to compete with anything, but rather to bring back something that Toyota HAD. What the 86 gets compared to is not designed, it is found.
