I really hope they do come out with a more powerful version like a TRD or STi upgrade of some sort.
Beautiful car, beautiful handling, but feels abit underpowered when compared to 2 litre NA cars in its class like the Civic and Integra Type Rs. The chassis has so much potential.
Engine bay is pretty compact then trying to fit a turbocharger looks challenging even if the factory ever dicide to build a turbocharged version. It seems the only way is to install the turbo in a remote position.
If only they could shoe horn in a 3.5V6 supercharger like the ones powering the Evora or better still a Lexus ISF V8. It's gonna be one 370Z slayer.
I also do wish they have a TC and VSC off option where turning off mean really off if there was such an option (don't listen to what the motoring press have said so far).
Anyway it's free to talk and share my opinions but its coming back down to reality, doubt i'll ever get one of these cute babies in my life time.
But if you guys want something that's fast in a straight line u are better off in a Civic Type R, Mazda 323 MPS, Golf GTi, Megane RS.
The FT86 is a nice streetable car and accessible to the general public but it's abit of a hairdresser's car if one is a petrol head (not saying it's slow to begin with but slow if compared to the cars mentioned above).
Pity they dont make many rwd cars these days sigh..........
