I'm not sure if i know a single 2.0L naturally aspirated engine (newer car) that produces 200 horse. Hell my tC is a 2.4 and it only makes 161. Displacement, as related as it can be, can to horse power, can also be absolutely unrelated. Hell my 4.3 makes just as much power as my 2.4.

Look at Honda.

Yes but those engines are not very suited to every day driving. Not all car buyers enjoy having to rev the hell out of their cars to move a couple of feet in a traffic jam.
If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

Isn't VTEC supposed to give you the best of both worlds?
Anyway you do have point. Altough I guess someone who buys a Type-R is prepared to live with that.

apart from a lot of honda's, toyota gets close with a 1.8, and nissan's own SR20ve gets 200hp which is why i asked what engine this car has.
exactly, although you wouldn't have to rev it so much if your car isn't a barge, haha.

The old Corolla and Celica T-Sport had a 1.8 litre engine with 192bhp. It's the engine than now powers the Elise.

I thought you had ~$15k to spend?
A used G35 can be had for that much

Not where im from. Not at a dealer any way. I'm financing what ever it is i end up with, looking for payments around or less than 300 a month. My brothers truck is crossed off the list, He pays 345 a month, plus gas. So more than i want. I was thinking, and this is way off any other car i have ever had, power wise. Of possibly getting a 09 yaris, with the optional 18" rims from trd I can get one brand new for 15,000.

Yaris with 18" wheels? Don't do that.

For Great Justice.
If you are looking at a Yaris why not a Fit?
or a Scion TC coupe?

The Yaris probably drives better, since it less MPVish than the Jazz.
And I know nothing about the TC. But I think the original plan was better, despite not knowing anything about the Nissan either.
If you don't need the seats you could look at a used MX-5. Or if you need the seats a used Mustang.
