Wish Toyota would bring something to Pebble too!

The 300ZX community didn't want the 2+2 since none of the 2+2s were Turbo cars, at least not the 90-96 cars imported to the US. Also, to use a Jeremy Clarkson-ism, the 300ZX was a pornographer's car, bought by someone who doesn't have more than one friend at a time, certainly not by someone...

It's definitely GM of some sort. Won't really compete with Ford GT since 1) Ford will sell all their cars regardless and 2) I doubt anybody will be in the market for a $400k Chevy. But it could very well compete with the car on track and on paper. Ford has left a lot of room for other...

Good point. Seems to be a lot of space behind the driver. Otherwise roof would probably slope down sooner than that. And then there's the fact that FT1 had backseats and Toyota told us they were ripping off the 2+2 setup from the 911 since the beginning...

Assuming you can't get financing, somewhere between ~$35,000.00 and $100,000.00 ;) Seriously at least $50k, unless it's not anything like FT1.

Unfortunately you're right!!!

+1 Exactly they are rumors, we have to wait and see. As for choices at that price point, I'd have to disagree. $90k gets you a base stripper 911 which is a fairly underwhelming car. Carrera S is over $100k, and with any modicum of typical options ticked, easily $110, $120k, although you can...

Corvette has the Z06 for $80k. Ford has the GT350R for $65k. Toyota could absolutely do it, at least the core concepts like engine, transmission, etc. LFA was not a real car for comparison purposes. It was a designer's wet dream , ultra limited production, custom carbon weave looms...

I would pay $84k for that. Current rumors are far short of what we were shown in FT1, and the "car" that Toyoda drove in Gran Turismo which caused him to approve it. Ft1 was under 3k lbs, ~500 horsepower, dual clutch, active aero, legitimately fast sportscar to compete with high spec 911, 911...

Truer words never spoken :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

SPX means special experimental super duper extra power prototype, so 40i prob has like 550 horsepower. Duh.

True cross shop, for me, would be GT350R or a Nissan GTR. Upcoming would be possible new Cayman GT4, new Ford GT350/GT500. However, by the time this hits I hopefully will be able to afford more. But still might end up getting a Mustang.

At least it sounds good! Those tires look pretty big, at least bigger than what's on the M2. Would seem to indicate there's more power than the N55 or whatever. But who knows.

+1 this is just bullshit recycled speculation. Wouldn't even call it news. There's been zero, zero, zero press release or any official word at all, and not even leaked specs of engines in development, etc. that this could be based on. We will only know anything real when there is either a...

Looks like the grey FT1.

People cross shop everything. New jeep vs bass boat. 4K tv or diamond earrings. You name it.

NSX may be worth six figures, but not its given pricetag, which is evident given how poorly it's been selling, and from the start. As said above, this thing starts at $157,800 but goes all the way over $200,000 with options. For that money you can get a real exotic like McLaren, Porsche Turbo...

The initial speculation way back when seemed like a carbon or CFRP tub could be possible, but given all the reports of the possible price point and performance etc it seems unlikely. It would be incredibly impressive though. I just doubt that something like the BMW Z4 is going to have a cfrp...

Unless you've got a carbon tub, hard top is the only way.

I don't even think the powertrain is redeeming. The gist I get from the reviews I've seen is that the journalists are underwhelmed. Very heavy, interior from an Acura MDX, doesn't beat the ancient GTR despite costing practically double. Like you said, a lot of this would be forgivable if it...
