If the new 86 is a similar weight to the current one then it likely will be around 300lbs lighter than the new 4 supra. I would be interested to see how the new 86 compares to the 4Supra on the track in stock form.
If the engine they used is a BMW, I suspect the 4 Supra will win that easily. The problem is the 86 will sound like a much better deal on paper if it gets a similar hp rating, so we can say goodbye to that na2.4 that at least I was hoping for.
