Yes I will agree with you that getting down to a flat 3,200 may be a stretch. But I feel getting into the high3,200 range from the factory is not. From there, the average modder will be able to drop 25 - 50 more lbs without even trying hard....more for the serious guys (but most serious guys go straight for the SS so we likely won't see many guys doing serious weight savings on the turbo 4 version...then again I could be wrong.)

I have come to appreciate that faith very much. I just know how much work the engineers did on the ATS to get it where it is and that was a lot. More reduction would be exponentially higher and costlier.
Let us hope you are right because that would truly be an awesome automobile.

So is that actual cubic inches or "equivalent" cubic inches.
If it is the sound of the cubic inches there are technologies that can make a 4 cylinder sound just like V8. I heard a Solstice with this technology and it sounded just like a V8. Now my argument is that it wasn't "authentic". It was fake.....FAKE I say.
