Z35 motor theory

There's no way the ft-1/supra will be in the z price range. I think, especially if it looks anything like that, it will at least need to be in the vette range minimum.

I don't get Toyota FT-1 plan, nor how that would/should fit with Nissan's new Z plans.

Clearly the FR-S doesn't compete with the current Z, and the current Z would need to move upmarket to compete with the FT-1... What about something between the FR-S and the FT-1?

In other words... This makes no sense to me... Toyota has the FR-S which is a cheap-ish, slow, entry level kind of car, so they expect people to move up to a $50K+ car from that?

They're leaving a rather large hole in the line-up if you ask me.
