Given that Toyota will have three models of Supra in a wide performance and price range, they might just need another Celica or MR2 as the next 86.
Joint production of 86/BRZ looks like a conflict of interest to me.

what variant of the supra comes below 30 K....? go to japan, asia, australia, etc....4 cyl supra is still very expensive, 86 makes a hell of a lot more sense...in japan the 4 cyl supra is literally double the cost of the 86. The US is pretty much the only market that has a good price for both the 86 and supra even then there is a good price difference between 4 cyl supra and 86...
MR2 is a silly pipedream that doesn't work in this day and age of the automotive world. yes, let's add more complexity and development costs for a cheap sports car
fine just the way it is. if you really want a MR sports car, go get an elise...
