This is the same price as the MX5 in Australia!!!

The whole time they have been saying this will be a affordable sports car... I would say this isn't affordable i was hoping 35k fully loaded drive away!

Boy was I dreaming!

Yeah, didn't they say low-mid 30's to start with?

That is what I was looking at too!!!

Slide · 09-09-2011, 02:30 AM

yeah they said 30k starting price... :S!

I have gotten two replies from other Toyota Dealers now.

Hi Scott,
Thanks for your enquiry on the FT-86.
At this point in time there is very little information available for this new model.
It is due for release next year but the price range and due arrival dates have not been confirmed as yet.
I will place you on the register for launch information and as updates come to hand we will pass them on.

Good morning Scott,
Thank you for your enquiry regarding the FT-86. At this stage we have very little information other than the car will be released some time next year.
Toyota have not given any hint as to features or pricing.
If it’s okay with you I will keep your details on file and let you know as soon as we receive more information.
Kind regards,

So which one is telling the lies?

Yeah, I hope $43k is just highballing guess! Drop $10k and it'll be good.
$43k? No f***ing way!

I pretty much told him that with nicer words and haven't got a reply back :P

As I said in the other thread. It's bs. The dealer is talking out of their ass and don't know shit. Dealers never know shit prior to vehicle release except for very certain exceptions

Slide · 09-09-2011, 04:00 AM

So you still think there is hope for 35k ?

Type[R]+ · 09-09-2011, 04:08 AM

Yeah, there better be hope lol!

70NYD · 09-09-2011, 04:19 AM

I think we won't know nothing untill official word or at least a few months prior to Australian release, untill then there is no point pulling hair out and growing grays over rumors, speculations, and dodgy salesman

farugah · 09-09-2011, 05:34 AM
