Which Lexus coupe? The RC or the LC? Both could've been solid candidates to become a rebadged Toyota and carry the Supra nameplate, in my opinion. However, the LC is very heavy, so I think the RC...

I didn't know burger places sold cars. I'll let my Sales Manager know that I guess we're Chevy of McDonald's now.

LOL you're contradicting yourself because this is yet ANOTHER point to state that the car is crap. Yes I assumed it was a 4 seater because the 86 is a 4 seater and the 86 is smaller AND lighter....

Wait it's not a 2+2?

Wow... It has roughly the same dimensions as an 86, and 600lbs more... I had just assumed that it was a 2+2.

Add that as the third reason for why I'm not buying this car...

You're right, it is silly. But to get my point across that the 86 is one of the best, if not THE best chassis for under $100k, it was necessary. For some reason they didn't believe me but that's...

Although I must admit, a claimed 0-60 of 4.1 seconds is lightning fast for a car also claimed to only have 335hp... So that's probably WHP. That being said, I still think the car could've been a few...

Are you saying that I'm lying? The 86 is one of the best chassis for under $100k. Fact.

It's also one of the lightest sports cars on the road, beaten only by the Miata as far as I know, why do you...

Yes... I knew all these things, it wasn’t hard to figure out, it was in the same link I posted. Not rocket science by any means. I don’t think you understand my argument. I don’t give a crap about...

Because 2019 Subaru Ascent, that's why.

The same engine is also theorized to be due for the 2020 STI, or perhaps the 2020 WRX, with the STI receiving an even bigger engine.

Lol I think you missed the joke, I said they're trying to be like Lexus or BMW with the Supra, because it has a luxury car feel to it. I was making a mockery of their ownership of Lexus and the use...

I have to disagree that a $40k Supra is impossible. As I've stated, for $40k, you can get a loaded Mustang EcoBoost, or a mid-level optioned out Mustang GT, both have luxury touches, loads of tech...

Tuner culture overlaps almost entirely with the car enthusiast crowd, and sure they want a manual, did you not see the 24-speed shifts of Fast & Furious?

I'm not disregarding anything. The car is beautiful, and it LOOKS like a Supra. But no manual and no Toyota power plant completely goes against the iconic Supra formula. Now, I was willing to give...

Probably will not, some people just don't want the hassle and cost of owning a BMW. Especially not in something called a Toyota.

I'm more of a Mustang guy myself (as well as a Toyota guy), but I can still admit when a Corvette literally 1:1 beats the Supra in every measurable category we have so far. I HOPE it's better than it...

Does it still after you include factory optioned TRD lowering springs? I doubt it.

The new Supra is really disappointing, in the $50k price point, you can get a Corvette if you want a car lighter, or a GT350 if you just want a monstrous track car. Hell, you can 2JZ swap an 86 and...
