I'll admit, I laughed, hard. If this car were close to 300hp, turbo, awd, I'd have my money sitting at a dealership right now for this.

But it seems Toyota is a little hurt by the "looks fast" and "sporty car not sports car" responses that have been all over the net. Well warranted. Glad they're stepping up their game finally. Though by time this car hits, the next-gen WRX which is becoming it's own entity is going to be coming about, so there's going to be severe competition.

And "turbo lag" isn't what it used to be, especially with more modern designs and smaller units.
