True, I'm just saying they need a sportier blue, I think it'd sell pretty well.

The Camaro looks better I think and also the Camaro will hold its value better than this car since its a well known car the BRZ & F-RS are new cars that may or may not take off or sell well. Yeah the BRZ is lighter than a Camaro but thats about all it really will have on it. I think this might be a good secondary sports car but not a car to have as an only sports car. Also I think the Hyundai Genesis Coupe will give this car a run for its money with more power eventually and also Honda is going to debut their new NSX in January next month at the Detroit Auto Show thats the one I would look into before this car in my opinon when it comes to imports. A new Mazda RX7 or RX8 could be around the corner in the next couple years too.
The NSX will be way out of this car's league. I'm assuming it will be in-line with the original NSX and go after more exotic cars, or at least the Nissan GT-R. I'm guessing an NSX will cost at least three times what the BRZ does.

I like this car too. IMHO pony cars are getting rather expensive these days, and they aren't the affordable everyman cars they used to be.

This is a major problem for the Civic Si. I'd just as soon take an SS or a 5.0 over either, but who in their right mind would choose a FWD Civic (or the CRZ, which I imagine is soon destined for the scrap heap of history) over the BRZ?
