  From the back, looks like a mercedes.
From the side, looks like a Lexus

 
I'd say it looks more like a BMW E60 and a Lexus S190 bumped uglies back in 2010.

I love the look and stance of those cars, just wish they had a turbo model! 


It would be nice if they did bring out a special version with more power for those who want it. Personally though, I'm not a fan of turbo motors in my vehicles and if it had one I would have never even considered it. I don't think they will ever put a turbo in it from the factory due to them already having heat related issues with the stock motor that have yet to be solved. The reason I installed the hood vents is just daily driving in a hot climate is enough to deteriorate the ignition coils and throw engine check lights after a few years... The engine bay really needs to be vented on this car!

I'm more a fan of the exotic small V8's...If cost and maintenance weren't an issue, this would be the kind of motor I would want in the car:

  Just picked up a Neon SRT-4 last night. Puts down 300hp to the wheels. 
 

That's a massive intercooler.

It's an AGP BFMIC, it serves a massive purpose :wink:

I wasn't aware of the heat related issues. There were rumors about an STI version at one point, it looks like they went the other way with those.

LSX swap. The answer for more power is always an LSX swap.

And if they can shoehorn one into a friggin Miata, you can probably fit one in a BRZ.
