Thanks for posting! 2,822lbs? It's hard to keep track of all of the weight numbers floating around right now.

While the weight is a little disappointing based on the previous rumors, the driving experience sounds exactly like what most of us are looking for. So close to TMS!

I will continue to have faith that the high-spec will be 2711lbs as with the Japanese brochure leaks. I can do 200lbs more than my Celica for a gain of 65HP but more than that (300lbs more) will dampen my enthusiasm a bit.
Come on TMS! |

Wow this reporter actually had some constructive critism along with a praise. This I way better than all the other reviews where they just keep talking about the same pros.

keep in mind that US magazines tested the AT version. and that US cars typically end up heavier due to a myriad of reasons such as larger crash beams, etc.
