I would guess closer to $25k since the price quoted is 2.5mil yen. But based on those numbers you posted MatadorRacing, it could be closer to $21k. That would be a pleasant surprise. Looks like I'm waiting for the baby FT for certain. At least we finally we have an release date . |

I say 23K is more realistic. They don't want FT-86 to hurt tC sale, so they need to up the price of FT-86 to differentiate tC from FT-86.

Hopefully it gets priced to compete with the 2.0T Genesis Coupe, so I think we can expect a sub-24k price tag.

$24k +/- $500 is $23,500 - $24,500 ..... Lets start a bet on the FT-86 starting price (regular NA base model, no stripped track version or turbo version or Gs). p.s. I think the tC is a fairly different target market, but... maybe, who knows. |

^^^ Does this price game include the ridiculous dealer mark ups that will happen?

Dealer mark-ups on this model will be super high, especially if it lands below $28K or so.
After hearing about the engine in today's news it looks like it's worth every penny. |

I don't know how Toyota can discontinue all sporty/sports car models because "they don't sell" then allow dealers to mark up their new sports car anticipating good sales.

I don't think "they don't sell" isn't the main reason why Toyota discontinues all the sports car. Some reason might be Emissions, other one could be Safety and lists just goes on
