To answer your question: Stingray, Accord Hybrid, RS7, IS, NSX... etc.

I didn't know Subaru would be unveiling a hybrid but okay then. Add that to the list as well.

I really dislike it, when someone say things like " It destroys the meaning of the car" and they never really check the facts or give it a chance. " what is the meaning of this car?"does anyone even understand the meaning of this car and what it stands for, its stands for a revival in affordable sports cars, and interests in cars that have dwindled in past years. It's to bring things back, they started with a coupe, so what if they want to bring a convertible, a possible roadster. Another option to the Miata Segment, something that fills the S2000 gap from a proven platform, that was suppose to be a convertible in the first place. How does that destroy the meaning of the car. It only adds more to what this car was made to bring something that was lost back. Look at a bigger picture. // rant after comment battle on 7tune's fb XD

^ it kind of gives a real-life experience of how the debris fall from sky in many of the Gundam series. Imagine if you were in Sydney in UC 0079.01.10.

BTW, just finished watching Gundam Seed Remastered version. Still a cool story to follow.

No, I'm waiting for 2015 model. Why? Here are few reasons
1. Number - Sound stupid, but I do not like the number "14". Also number "15" is my number. Yes, I know I'll be buying it next summer or so of '14, so what's the deal? Who cares right? No, I just can't... it's my money. I wanna make sure, I'll be 100% satisfy w it.
2. Aftermarket options - I want to see all the aftermarket options I have. Sound jack@ss, but I wanna see much options w several members trying out, testing, & see yr of using how still holds up. I don't wanna replace it few month after buying it.
3. Financial - I just barely finished paying student loan off. I could prob buy em right now... but don't have fat down payment... so wanna save it up yr or so, so I can get low monthly payments.
4. Secret... Can't say it now...

Number part is a bit weird, though i do agree with you on the aftermarket part.

I don't think anyone has officially blown the engine up yet, no?
