I'd drive it if they put a real transmission in it and made it RWD/AWD. 290 BHP on FWD is going to be unusable. Torque steer anyone?

That the whole front of the car will fall off while you're driving due to poor build quality?

Sequential turbo 2.0L, very odd. I wonder how heavy this thing is? It looks better than a lot of new cars I've seen but it is still a concept.

Since when? The old Kia Sephia GS uses the 94-97 Miata's 1.8...which is also in a 90's Protege and Ford Escort GT. Several other motors they used have Ford bellhousing patterns as well as small Ford/Mazda motors.

Eomund, not quite. Newer Ford motors aren't bad since 90% of them come from Mazda. Mustang and some truck motors being the exception...as they're all horribly made...by Ford.

LOL
I figured it came from Taiwan...but yeah, China makes more sense.
Either way, my 17 yr old Miata has no rust, but nearly everyone's 15yr old S13 on here does.
Yay for Chinese pot metal.
