I don't know why anyone doubts that after a year or so and the hype dies down you'll be able to easily buy a C8 for $5k+ off sticker if you know where to shop. It's been that way since at least the C4 generation. Heck you buy a manual C7 for $45k right now and pretty much always been able to buy them in the low 50s. I'm not a huge C7 fan, but IMO its a step up from a Mk5 Supra. Chevy keeps the price low by cranking the volume up. I seriously doubt the BOM cost is that much different C7 to C8.

I think the Mk5 is a dud. All the bay area dealers here have several and most at sticker. Maybe it's the price point, but at least these cars had markup for almost a year when they came out. That was why I waited almost a year to buy mine. As someone who's owned Supras since the early 90's the Mk5 is just plain cold to me. If I wanted to buy a BMW there are plenty of dealers around to buy one. I buy Toyota mostly because they are reliable.
