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

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

I guarantee your neck and your mouth will drop when you see the new Supra on the road or up close in person. I was told it looks even better in person lol

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

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.

If it looks like a turd, feels like a turd and smells like a turd, I don’t need to taste it to tell you it’s a turd.

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...

I'm not getting one, but I won't deny that it'll be a better car than a stock Z34. My sister is getting a launch edition when it arrives later this month/next month, so I'm PUMPED to try it out.

Anyway, to get back on topic - I didn't watch the video but I agree with a lot that's being said here - 86 and 370Z (especially a Nismo) shouldn't even be compared. That's not to say one car is better than the other, but they are just in different classes it doesn't even makes sense. The only thing that have in common is that they are both Japanese RWD coupes :P

She gonna put a fart can on it to impress all the fast and furious Honda fanbois?

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
