Are threads like this indicative of the average intelligence of someone who owns a twin? I want out of this platform.

Probably that or just newer owners, because OP just joined the forum and has the new 16 and also hasn't fully grasped the search concept yet.

I love how people are in such denial about power.
it's not going to happen at the very most we'll probably get 20-40 more HP

^ This I don't get why people think they are going to give the FRS more power. I don't see the point in going through more R&D and using higher quality parts (bring costs up) to add extra power to a sports car in such a niche market that is slowly losing sales. Just my 2 cents.

I like twins the way it is. Its priced right and is a fun to drive and I highly doubt lexus adding this platform into thr lineup. If I want tons of power and got money to burn, I would have gotten gt350r or something else.
People are already crashing these car even with 200hp motor. Just image how many more crashes will happen if high powered version of these car are released and all these wannabe showoff kids gets there hands on it who doesn't know how to drive. The twins are already classified as high premium slot by insurance companies due to soo many people crashing it. on a side note: this reminds me of the wannabe drift kid at my job with the mustang who crashed his ride on his way home last week trying to be cool and totaled the car....lol...kids!!! |

The best way I can describe the twins in this context is they are the anti Lexus. You probably couldn't make them further from being a Lexus in every way even if you tried.
Much like the Bugatti Veyron it would be an exercise to prove that it could be done as apposed to whether it made any financial sense to do so. Amusingly enough Lexus already did it with the LFA anyway.
