I absolutely love this:

Looks like it'll be a great autocross contender against the Miata and the Honda S2000 because of its light weight and low center of gravity boxer engine.

There will be a turbo version... If I get a better paying job and I move to CA or somewhere down south, this is going to be my daily driver.

Curb weight is UNDER 2700lbs. With only 200hp and 151tq, it matches or beats the thirdgen GTA's 0-60 numbers at 6.2 seconds. Imagine what the turbo version would be like. But from what I'm reading the balance of the car is near perfect for autocross and road courses.... and you can even take it into a drift just by turning the wheel. No need to use the e-brake and do clutch work. I think I found my next sports car!

The blue one looks cool..kinda has the roofline and quarter windows of the nissan altima coupe...plus the boxer engine sits real low for a better center of gravity. All that it needs is for you to wear some baggy snowboard pants, a burton on the roof, and n.i.n sticker on the back and its good to go!
