Vince Tidwell was at the Gap and spoke this weekend.  His word is that

the pictures of the we saw are dead on.  The car is definitely stiffer.

It will be HEAVIER but have more HP.  Still the 1.8 but tweaked.  No 6

speed.  The car will also probably be more optioned.  Less base stuff

and more pick what you want on it.

Says the release is the fall show in Hawaii
