I see the trunk opening comes down lower again like the first concept. Easier access.

I'd take FR-S over "Scion Dimension"

ahh, good point. right right wasn't thinking about that. Let's split the diff at 150tq, lol...seriously though. If the weight is under 3000, then these numbers should be more than adequate. for a car in the 20k price range.

With that kind of logic we might as well say 3100 pounds and 150 hp at the worse side. If it is lighter and more powerful that is always a plus.

I'm down, I just want this forum to take off, and the only way to do that is make a kick a$$ technical area like supraforums did, and have everyone looking to know and own the knowledge that these car will require.
I know my supra is better because of it.

Is that really the door handle? Oh boy, I thought that was some sort of emblem. Man my back would get tired of bending over all the time to get in the car.
