agreed. but I find that many people these days are fooled by power into forgiving an inadequately engineered car. It's like going to an expensive restaurant where they cover up flawes in their food by dousing it with salt or butter. Taking away what I call "obvious power" leaves nothing to hide. I guess its a sign of the times, people seem to want a car that they can leave in 3rd gear and the engine just carries their driving the whole time. And since the only quick driving most will do is on the highway and never venture to a DE/AX, they care only about straightline speed when they give the car a thumbs up or down.

p.s.
For the price can you bring me a new, fully warrantied sports car that is better than the FRS? serious question.
