toyota FT-1 concept (possibly next Supra)

Jordo!

Guys, it not going to look like that exactly.

They don't need another unafordable halo car that can't beat the GT-R anyway.

The Supra in the late 90's cost betwen 32 and 45K; in todays dollars that's 40K and 65K respectively.

Those values mean, N/A = slightly pricey Z fighter, turboed = pricey Nismo fighter, both with no real competitors (the tuboded straight 6 not quite keeping up with the slightly more expensive blown US Pony cars that will have poorer fit and finish.)

I could be wrong, but a little too much money for a little too little car is what they did with the FR-S (that might change once the idx comes out...), and is probably the model they'll follow here.

So something in the 40 to 60 range is totally do-able for something that looks good and performs well without totally pricing itself into extinction when faced against the higher end Mustangs and Camaros or being a joke vs. the (now 6-figure) GT-R.

Building a cheaper LF-A to result in a GT-R priced car will sell no cars. The latest GT-R is FASTER than their halo LF-A at a fraction of the cost.

I really wish this goes into production, though I doubt this will be a GT-R fighter. It's probably going to be priced between the GT-R and the Z. Hopefully the next Z moves up in performance to compete with this Supra, if that's the case.

That would be great. Especially if the next Z will be able to compete.
