GT86
For those deriding the "space saver" wheels. Remember the DC2 was on 195 profile 15s and was all the better for it.
Skinny rubber = more fun and cheaper tyres. I can't think of any downsides.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts over the coming year or two Nick. I think one of these will replace our ATR around 2015. As you know, we have similar views on what makes a great drivers car - forget all the crap and bling and make it light, nimble and fun. The GT86 is the car the CRZ should have been

CRZ = TFR! Honda's clusterf uck.
It's exactly the same tyre sizes as the 'Lude, which is easily the best-handling car I've driven. You can slide it wet or dry, unlike these insensitive over-tyred crassmobiles. The 86 requires a little more circumspection on a wet road, having RWD but no active 4WS.
Thought this was interesting, from a packaging perspective:

Resprayed it already? 
Saw a red one the other day, looked very nice.
The M has monster tyres but you can still have the tc having cardiac constantly
. I do enjoy the excess power kick.
Re the merc, its like that inside too. Merc and Aston are chavtastic lately.

That matters less, since you don't have to remove the airbox lid and destroy what little power it has to get an interesting sound inside.
But there will be loads of 3" drainpipes and it's reckoned that a few BHP ought to be found that way -the manifold isn't as 'perfected' as the S2000's was out of th box.
