Yes I placed a pre order already but I don't think that's the reason.

I think it's our participation here. "big brother" is watching lol

Depends what they do with that though. If they go and decide 'oh we'll just set the base price to $40k because that's what all the FT86club market is telling us is their expected price' then that's not really a positive thing

Nardi330 · 04-13-2012, 08:40 PM

But we don't represent the whole market and it is unwise for them to only take our word into consideration.

tlp · 04-13-2012, 09:01 PM

That's a fair call. Well hopefully the FT86club crowd doesn't have too much emphasis on pricing. Anyways, back on topic was the Tsuchiya a part of the chat too?

Got to admit Toyota is really doing a good job at pushing this into the market as they're just going by word of mouth for quite a lot of this stuff!

Nardi330 · 04-13-2012, 09:16 PM

No the drift king wasn't part of the chat.

Ten grand difference? horse shit

40 and 50? come on... That's got to be a gee up.

Again, I stress we cannot confirm this price at this stage but will follow the thread for future posts.

Thanks

If this is the case I'm not bothering

Thankfully that's not the case

Expect to start at the price but it will drop eventually, especially if a new series or model is released.
