The cheapest Supra 2.0 MSRP is $56,390. There is a huge price gap between the two cars, and yes a turbo isnt gonna somehow add 20g to the price..
HOWEVER, if we use the Mazda3 for comparison (they just intro'd a turbo model). The closest i can get for a spec for spec comparison between the two is a Mazda3 GT AWD hatch (premium package) is MSRP $33,376 INCLUDING freight + PDI.
The press release states that a Mazda3 GT AWD Turbo is $35,600 + 1750 for frieght + PDI = $38,350,
almost $5000 dollar difference just for a different engine.
less 2300 if you dont get the premium package with turbo.
So a turbo 86 would realistically add somewhere between $2500-5000 to the price....lowest price in Canada starts at 30,000....its already went up in price since the Scion badge died (i think it was around $27000 when it was a Scion)
Is it worth that? Especially since some people think the 86 is somewhat overpriced already.

I would have gladly paid an extra 2500-5000 dollars. I'm going to be spending more than that supercharging my car and forfeiting my 10 year 150,000 mile warranty in the process.
