Think about what you just said...they competed with Ferrari in the 90s...since then, all Ferrari has done was place R&D into the sole development of their supercars and, now, Hypercars...they are leagues beyond where they were in the 90s.I think people are missing the point as to why the Mk5 is a disappointment. Especially when compared to the Mk4
First of all the argument that it’s quicker is a moot point. Of course it would be after 25+ years. the fact it’s so little improved is the real issue.
Second people mention price. In 1993 the MkIV cost $40k it outperformed the Ferrari 348 at $122k and the Porsche 911 at $70k
The new supra is priced more than cars that outperform it.
These are just some of the reasons this car doesn’t live up to the original.
It breaks no barriers the original did at all.
The reality is, there's a different competition nowadays, and Ferrari is on a level that will not be sought after from the likes of Toyota. It's just not realistic!
