Why hasn't anyone created a 2.0L DI turbo Fiero? {Autoblog}
May 7th 2008 8:13PM None of which the Fiero platform really takes advantage of... I would rather swap the 2.0L turbo 4 into the late Toyota MR-S, lighter, stiffer, stronger, and prob much easier to come by.
Subaru worried that RWD coupe could dilute brand {Autoblog}
Apr 22nd 2008 1:59AM It is now their niche yes, but I argue that a RWD Subaru automobile will not going to hurt its brand image. Second, image a lineup of cars that began with (RWD coupe), WRX, and ended with STI

Lifan 320 MINI ripoff to debut at Beijing Motor Show {Autoblog}
Apr 18th 2008 2:31PM If the situation was reversed and America had cheap labor and China is looking to outsource, would you want Chinese companies to build factories on our soil and use our labor for no potential growth benefits?
Funny how you left out America's benefit from China's unlimited cheap unskilled (and sometimes skilled) labor. When you look at it that way, you see we trade Chinese factory workers labor (near exploitation of avg .57 cents per hour, 50 hours weekly) for Hollywood videos, Microsoft software, and German car design.
I read a funny article some past Christmas, that nearly 80% of goods purchased for the holiday season was was manufactured in China. So maybe we just became overdependent?

Apr 18th 2008 12:45PM Chinese government? You think this is a government conspiracy? LOL.
Lifan is a privately owned company... although Chinese Automakers are probably the least subtle about borrowing styling cues, you should understand that all automakers borrow design cues.
You also think that American companies are "forced" to produce in China (I'm guessing your thinking Buick)? Go back to school, American companies FLOCK to China for the cheap labor. Cheap labor = decrease cost = increase profit.

A bit porky yea... but the specs are awesome! I don't think this thing is out to contend against S2000/Miata at an AutoX event, but this will be a very nice DD sports car.
F/I and N/A options
RWD
6 speed manual
Mac Strut front, Multilink rear suspension
LSD option (i'll even take a helical type)

Mar 19th 2008 4:56PM DUH... it's turbocharged vs N/A.... most N/A engines rely on displacement to provide power
why don't you compare apples with apples? instead of apples with oranges?
WRX 2.0L - 227hp
Genesis 2.0L - 217hp
Very close competition in terms of performance
