Coming from a guy who has driven from a civic to a 3er to a m3 to a r8 v10, and driven in asia and NA, I can assure you that I will not have a smile when I have to drive a sub-200 hp car when I come home everyday where I have to climb a steep ass hill to Midlevels. Hell even in Kerrisdale I had to climb a steep hill in my back alley every day. This is just one example.

Lotus doesn't even compare, wtf?
civic to a 3er to a m3 to a r8 v10??

You missed the point. Look at the price for the power and the 86 is reasonable. If you have the cash to blow for an R8 then you won't buy an 86. But for those maybe just graduated or even students this is a good car. And that is their target market anyway, not people who can afford M3s or AMGs.
