I'm not even mad about performance or whatever, but I don't want to lose heated seats or all the cupholder/console space that is essential on long drives.
From my 2020 Si, I'm gonna move on to the GR86 premium or whichever Integra trim gets two of the three: bigger engine/manual/AWD
Extra powerful and sporty trims of a luxury car (Integra) are going be more broadly appealing than the all-sportiness stripped down (relative to a luxury brand car) pinnacle-of-FWD Type R offering.
some will cross shop but I doubt they will cannibalize each other that much. The Integra will do...
Totally fair, from the broad view I can see the Integra having a much broader sales base just due to the 4 (5?) doors.
