Oh for sure, it's nowhere near the performance capabilities against a BMW. But I think the Japanese have long since given up the fight with Germany on performance credentials. Instead, they focus on other elements that could appeal to customers, like design, craftsmanship, etc. It's funny how the spindle grill was hated by so many 9 years ago when it debuted. Now BMW has stolen that mantle with their newer grills. But I'm sure they will eventually be accepted just the same.
