I disagree. The LF-A is a collector car at this point, due to its rarity, and it's expensive enough that only the rich can afford it.. Toyota could do well to make a direct competitor in price and performance to the GT-R. Look at the Aston Martin Vanquish. It was great, and then it was overtaken in the bang for buck argument by later, less expensive Astons.

Meh I guess. Don't know how seriously it will compete with the $100k GT-R if the Supra is at $60k. Maybe it will do the same thing the GT-R did, start out around $60k and then hit the six figure mark like 3 years later.
