The GT86 is a wannabe racer. A good platform to play with, but cannot really be called a performance car. Great value for the money. Not as great as the 370Z. Just a bit newer.

If it is co-developed with BMW, you can bet the Supra will be priced in the same range as its Teutonic sibling. Look at other twins separated at birth. MX5 and the 124 Spider comes to mind - pricing only really differs in as much as the packages are not directly comparable. Then they talk about possibly limiting production. Saying that the new Supra "will not be cheap" should not surprise anyone.


There was a report a couple years back that gas engine cars will be exclusive to exotics as the push to make gas engines nearly EXTINCT. So as new sports cars come out. You will see prices getting higher. If a Z starts at 30k? I expect a Supra 4 cylinder to start as a base price on the mid 30's. And the 6 turbo to begin where the Nismo ends. About $48k. So you're easily looking at 60k for a loaded supra and up to 80k for special performance versions.


Anyway... New news. Better wheels. Woo hoo!
