Audi TT RS
Merc E100 Coupe
Chevy Corvette
Shelby GT350
Jaguar F-Type
Camaro ZL1
Cadilac ATS-V Coupe
Dodge Challenger Hellcat
Lexus RC F
BMW M4
Alfa 4C

If it's a no frills non luxury car your basically competing with American cars. And they are turning out to be decent handling cars too and start at 400hp/tq range.

Also doesn't look like the supra will be offered in manual, while at least half of the ones you listed offer manual.

Realistically it sounds like a 60k bmw Z4 with a supra badge on it, one of the pictures the shifter even looks like a straight bmw shifter.

I am going to hold final judgement for now, but so far it seems like the car is being catered to the nameplate generation.
