Toyota knows who they are, they can't sell a car that isn't a buster at 70k+, it wouldn't look right.

Still think it be high 50's-60's.

They put a shit load of R&D in the MK4 as well...it wasn't some recycled chassis and suspension.




All interviews with Calty designs have said around $60k usd:




"Calty's starting point was to design a sports car with a theoretical $50,000 to $60,000 price tag, Hunter said. That meant designing something wild, but not so exotic that it pushed the car into the territory that would make it a Lexus."
