A 50k car with only 335hp and not only that, it is auto, shoot, might as well save up some more and get yourself an m4 or the new audi rs5 or even the z06. I'm just happy that companies like Porsche, BMW and Chevy are still making their sports car manual.
Toyot a is waiting for consumer response to see if they will add a manual. My gut tells me a manual will come by its refresh.

BMW anything is a deal breaker for me. If I wanted a BMW, I’d buy a BMW! I hate when manufacturers buy platforms and just slap on redesigned sheet metal and call it their own. This has never been a successful option for any car maker in the past. It will be interesting to see what happens here.

well the GR is a Turbo inline 6 at $49K. Guess the 4's will be less. I'm going to be pissed if this is a bait and switch. Just like Porsche going to Turbo 4 @ $70K-$100K. Forget that crap

Ha ha! I agree... a 4 banger Porsche for 70k + is a load of horse sh** at best!

Have you driven one? They are faster than the flat 6 they replace (although they don't sound nearly as nice).

Guessing that's the way of the world, so good on Toyota for putting a 6 in this car.
They pretty much had to. 3,500 lbs???? WTF???

I bet it is a sweet ride based on how well I loved the BMW M240i xDrive. Need to see it in person in regard to the aesthetics, but I probably won’t buy even though I have been interested in it. The BMW M240i xDrive seems more compelling now.
