Default 2020 Supra... first thoughts

It’s amazing how quickly the BMW Supra has become irrelevant and/or just OK. Since the Corvette C8 is coming, that means you can now get new discounted/slightly used C7’s for the price (or less) of a new Supra. I mean, there’s just no comparison. I’d take C7 over a Supra without even blinking.
Don’t know but seems to me that Toyota could’ve hit it out of the ballpark but all they did is made a better BRZ/86. Too little, too late IMHO.

Which is probably one of the reasons Nissan has not introduced a successor to the 370Z. They are kind of "damned if you do, damned if you don't". It still sells practically as well as a new one would (give or take the initial blip on release), without the risk of creating something that people will find polarizing, or hitting the market at exactly the wrong time after all the reinvestment for R&D and re-tooling.

I've come across a CPO Z06 at right under $60k USD. Apart from GM's shoddy body panel alignment, that is just so much more car for the money.

That being said, if my current budget was in $50-60k, I would be walking into a Toyota dealer just to see if something intangible does change my mind.
