This car is all about sporty efficiency. It's not the most powerful, fastest, or best handling car we have ever made, but it is the most efficient, sporting 35 MPG from a naturally aspirated 3.0L inline-6. This is actually the first vehicle I've been able to meet all my design goals in, even if only just.

For the engine, I wanted an inline 6 that has an efficiency of at least 30%, low emissions and more HP than the 2.8L I4 used in the 328sx and 828x. It also had to rev over 6000 RPM.

For the car I wanted cornering of at least 0.90g, economy of 35 MPG and a top speed over 150 MPH. Of course it goes without saying it had to be RWD as well.
