I'd rock that supra in a heartbeat. I've been a Toyota car salesman for 8 years and always wanted to tell my customers I drove a Toyota instead of the honda's,audi's,acura's I have always had

The rear of the supra reminds me of the S2000 butt. The front is ok I guess, just doesn't like the big mouth front grill. The grill make it look cheap some how. As the say the more affordable will be around $40,000 with 350 hp, I'll pass. It's a Toyota not a Lexus. I was hoping they're at the 30k limit. So dissapointed they're only be 2 seaters. Now i know i made a good decision on buying my IS350.

not sure why they are aiming at the Nissan 350Z. 
$50K supra vs $27K 350Z
The reason they killed the supra and the Z back then was becasue of their high cost. Nissan came back with a more affordable Z. I hope Toyata will do the same because with a $50K price tag, there are many choices out there thus more competition.

The V-8 Supra will definately be the niche car in Toyota's lineup. The V-6 Supra will sell very well IMHO. Personally, I prefer 4-door sedans, but if Lexus were to do something with the LF-A it would be pretty tempting.

Figure with inflation that 50k is pretty reasonable... 96 supra TT (auto only) were around 50k nearly 10 years ago....for the money this would spank it sideways. Love my IS but as soon as I can place an order here for a Supra internally I'll have one.
