A bit stage left I guess - but if I am really honest about it, I have yet to comprehensively beat the all round driving pleasure I used to derive from my Alfasud Ti on the right road. However, if you looked at the bhp (around 95 I recall) or the 0-60 time and almost any other numbers, you would find it hard to believe (including the rubbery sprung gear change which really had to be mastered).
Visibility is quite an issue on B roads and it is a downside to Caterhams and Elises etc. I really like "feelsome" cars that you have to pedal along a bit, whatever they are, so I like the sound of the GT86 even though I haven't tried one. I think Toyota's thinking was to leave the power "issues" to the aftermarket providers.
