This is the new Supra, not an MR2 or Miata.

Nobody bought a MKIII or MKIV because of thier autocross dominance, light weight or road feel.

It was an attractive Coupe with spacious interior that was easy to tune and make big power. The MKIV shined because it also had a transmission, rear end and suspension geometry that supported the big power.

Maybe Toyota should have just turbocharged the FRZBGT86 and charged 30-35k for it.

The Zupra is going to be priced alongside a 500hp Mid Engine DCT Corvette, a flat plane crank, +8000rpm, manual only, track beast Mustang, etc.


If anything, the Hellcat and Z06 are the modern "Supras".
