I’d like to believe they won’t abandon it but.. I extremely doubt this car even getting a refresh. Everything depends on the success of this initial version.
At 335hp and 60k price tag it’ll find the fanboy sales initially and a year later they’ll start celebrating birthday days at dealer lots...
Yeah.. Pedastrian safety in Europe changes a lot of design elements on the cars. Yeah.. I’ll trade the Subaru boxer for even a cheese burger.. hate that thing. Much better off with the BMW powerplant.
Not bad.. wish the front fenders were not as tall .. sleek look of the S2K is what I had in mind. Michelin tires.. wish we could’ve made out the tire size.
Typical corvette buyer age median has lowered a lot since the C6Z era.. not saying older people don’t buy them now, but there are a ton of younger buyers now. I bought my C6Z when I was 29 and my C7Z when I was 35 and love it a lot. At least GM still caters to the purist...
Not sure who you responded to but here is why many people are sticking around including me.. even though you yourself know this car will in no aspect be a proper sequel to MKIV.
1) Love Supras (don’t get mixed up with Toyota fanboys.. I like/love anything that’s fun and fast)
2) First hand...
See the thing is.. I feel like there are a lot of die hard Toyota fans that’ll accept anything. But I’m the type that’ll buy anything as long as it’s a good product and fits my wants.
Issue with Toyota is.. they think and swear they know.. what you need. And discount the rest of the market...
Age is just a number bro.. MKVI supra stats..
1) all electric cause that’s what the market wants according to Toyota
2) 68mpg.. cause that’s what sells according to toyota
3) it’s borderline SUV.. cause.. that’s what the market demands according to toyota
4) they interviewed a bunch of MKV...
185hp 4cyl makes zero sense when you have a more powerful lower priced 86 around. 250hp 4cyl sounds like the IS200t motor and the RZ is what seems to be the trim to look forward to.
