When I originally heard about the 'more affordable turbo', I thought like a true American male: Skip the fluff and give me the power!

Boy was I wrong.

Instead they make a 3rd motor for the not-too-spicy-just-a-little-bit crowd. It's like buying an Accord LX when you cudda had the EX for a couple bucks more and kept a satisfied smile on your face all day long. Prediction: The most popular color will be some form of non-offensive silverish earthtone.

So now comes the question: What kind of PT is it? More than likely they'll say it's a PT TURBO... but is it? No. It's an LX Turbo.
Stevephen R. has it RIGHT!![|)]

Guys see value in a sandwich without the lettice pickles and mayo. Give me the meat, and maybe not even the bread!!!
What's wrong with allowing a tuner model slip out the door? Why is it that dealers can mark up the srt-4 $4,000.00 and still sell them?
Would the croud that has $20,000 to buy a car order a "strippie PT with all the power(and a drivetrain), NO frills!!!.....[?]
You'd have to bolt the door at night to keep the buyers out.[^]

As it is you have to belly up to the bar with an added $8,000 or more. Now you are into STI and EVO territory.
