To have the cheapest but fulfilling corvette experience, I configured at $79,285.

So if you really think about it, the Supra being $53,000 doesnt make it a comparable car to the corvette. Equally featured there is a $26,000 difference. If you buy a base corvette you make a lot of functionality and appearance sacrifices. At that point, itll be best just to buy a black car to hide you're driving a featureless vette.

The corvette and supra does not compete in a sense. They're 2 stand alone sports cars that will be hard to cross shop. You can try to compare a Z and Supra but the Supra is league's ahead of the Z in performance.
Same with a Cayman to a vette. The cayman is non existent in power to a vette at this price. At this point, the Cayman needs to change its price identity to fit between a vette and a supra or really go up in power. One or the other.

In the end, though both these cars dont compete, the both changed the game in there price ranges. Somebody needs to change the game in the 86 range. It would be nice to see a TRUE 86 killer. Nissan coulda done it with the IDX concept, but you know... Nissan.
