In case anyone is interested (Subaru BRZ)
I hate to mag race but not even close.
3200lbs / 287hp = 11.14 lbs/hp
2750lbs / 200hp = 13.75 lbs/hp
That is a BIG difference.
Look at the initial numbers. A 2012 V-6 Toyota Camry will smoke it down the 1/4

edit-The 5th gen Prelude back in 2001 had a great chassis, handled awesome, had 200hp and was the weakest selling car in that segment. Why? It was $25K lol.
200hp was cool in 2001, not in 2012, and at a price of $25K, which after title, tags, dealer fees, and tax is easily over $28K. No thanks.

They just released the pricing for the FR -S anyway as being discussed in another thread, and they really missed the mark imo, 20, 000 would have been perfect (that's what the original ttarget was)however this is what was announced:
Scion FR-S Pricing has been announced
MSRP
6253 6MT FA20 $24,200
6252 6AT FA20 $25,300
That's a bit steeper than expected
