The ZF 8HP is a heavy transmission. It wouldn't surprise me that just because you can get the 4 cyl in a manual you lose 150 lbs right there.

Why you wanna do that? There are ppl who doesn’t care bout those “luxury” options, but those ppl are rare kind of ppl. So in that view, 86 & Supra even 4 cylinders will be in different price category.
Will they keep the 86 alive in North America?

yup, because the weight differences between the EU I6 and US I6 is like 100lbs or so.

Wasn't this whole "please buy the 4-cylinder" fiasco disproven as some journalist BS?

The yellow would do just fine since it isn't a pastel sort of tone.
