For most people, this car is meant to fulfill a unique niche. It's a lightweight coupe RWD car with incredible handling characteristics. I agree that it's somewhat disappointing walking on eggshells for 3-400whp when other cars juggle it easily. But no amount of $ can make them small, RWD maybe, a bit lighter maybe. Better handling for sure, but dollar for dollar, they can't come close to the twins if anything but power is why you bought the car.

I feel that some of us who cherish this car have hopelessly been stuck in the 80s/90s. This car is fulfilling so many weird "small car rwd" fantasies for me without being a Miata or an e30/36 BMW, it's perfect. Bonus: it has a great fueling system and fuel mileage!
