There was no existing sports coupe or chasis that would have made this car economically viable otherwise. Go and buy an elise or an exige if you want a light weight sports coupe(either of which costs more, by the way), not something whose drivetrain alone weighs more than those cars.

Personally, I will buy one for sheer looks alone and secondly performance once the 392 with a 6 speed hits in a couple years. That car will humble 99% of the cars out there when I want it to and look awesome doing it.

Sorry, don't like the fatty's. Reasonable weight would be 3800lbs or less although anything above 3700lbs would be too much if you ask me. If you're going for looks alone I guess that's cool, plus it should be a pretty rare car too. As far as performance goes, it's gonna be getting beat by cheaper Csrt-4s, MS3s, EVOs, STIs, Camaros (eventually), 135is, Mustangs, GTOs, etc.. ^^All those cars are lighter and have at least 4 seats.
