Even assuming generously the 2.0 Supra will make 350 hp tuned at a weight of 3181 lbs and a price of 40k, I feel like that's too much of a premium over a sport package 370z making 332 hp at a weight of 3333 lbs and a price of $34k.

Obviously the 370z will be the inferior car, but the fact that it's a decent match on paper at $6k less and not tuned (and over a decade old) doesn't bode well for the 2.0 Supra. And you can get the 370z with a manual.

Just my 2c.
