I didn’t realize your sister was reading my opinions and was so easily triggered. I’m sorry, Sis!

Mr. Pot meats Mr. Kettle....

I don't think Mr. Kettle wants Mr. Pot's meat anywhere near him!

I don't know why. It is a BMW after all...

I think comparing the new Supra (the version everyone seems to be referring to at least) to a 30k$ Z is as ridiculous as comparing the 86 to a Nismo Z. Perhaps the real comparison price and style wise should be the Supra v Corvette.

So who's picking this Supra over a Corvette??? For starters, not I!

Not a GM or vette fan even though the c8 looks cool, new Supra for me. Just hope they make a manual.

Same here... definitely with a manual gearbox or the DCT equivalent.

No Manual on the Supra. 8spd auto. Rumor has it 2019 will be the last year for a Vette with a manual trans.

Apparently, the boy racers can’t hold their lattes’ and phones, text and shift all at the same time, so something had to go...

Price to price. I'd pick the Supra. If I bought a corvette? Its grand sport or better. Z51 isn't all that by comparison of a grand sport. A grand sport is 70k to start. A supra is $57k to finish.

There’s a dealer down here that’s pushing grand sports out the door at $57,000 to $59,000.

You're monkeying with the comparison when you start comparing Corvettes. I'm sure you can spend all you want on a Supra to get it over 70k.

I guarantee you that the Toyota dealers are going to be asking $10,000 over sticker.

65k msrp. First year will probably average 75-80k packaged up. Those 90s supra owners that made it will probably get back into it because
1) its a supra
2) novelty of a brand new platform
3) bmw engineered

People just like to hate on a car they don't have.

I like the BRZ/86 platform, they are more fun to drive in the corners, but dreadfully slow on the straights. They are the most fun cars I driven at autocross.

The Supra looks cool to me, sure it looks a little too racerish but it's also what makes it different. It's gonna blow the doors off a bolt-on Z unless you go FI, too bad they only made it in Auto and not DCT or manual.
