for me the interior is kind of giving off an IS vibe.

regarding the 86, i think a lot of the renderings based on the camo car gives us a pretty good idea of what to expect. if accurate, i prefer the front bumper to the BRZ.

I agree with this. I also did a crude adobe illustrator measuring exercise and was leaning towards 5x100. Could be off, but that's still my guess for now.

One of the things I really did not like at all when I sat in a Supra was how close the window was to me. It felt tight and confining even though it really wasn't. The green house in the 86 has never felt like that and even though it may seem like a minor point it is a serious consideration for some and something that all the old reviews touched on as a positive.

Could have been more awesome with oil temp and pressure, with a small fuel gauge on the bottom row opposite the odometer.

Oh yeah.

Still a much better overall gauge cluster on the new one!

The 2020 limited starts at $29,700 after destination. It isn't out of the realm of possibility depending how they package it.

I'm anxious to see what parts available now will swap over if any.

To many changes to predict price based on old models. None of those "upgrades" are free.
