Who knows, maybe the next generation Genesis coupe may improve to the point where it's considered a move up from the 86, but not yet a Supra competitor.

It's about, how do you go from the 86 to the Supra?
As someone said in the other thread. That price range is full of V8 American muscle cars. Not to mention that the Z has fail at that price point. At $50-$60k the only real competition would be the C7.

With a sub 86 car in the works the next gen 86/FR-S could move up class abit.

Sub 86 car $20k or less
FR-S could end up being a $30k car
FT-1 could have a base model at $50k and than have a higher trim at $60k.

$25k-$30k isn't that big of a price gap to a $50k-$60k FT-1. I mean Nissan has even a bigger price gap between the 370z and GT-R.
