Just googled. They sold over 110,000 cars. 6,000-9,000 a year in the USA. That's a ton. Comparable to the much cheaper Miata. Sales definitely trickled at the end, but they were trying to sell the same car for a full decade, for a really high price to boot. I think the dearth of Honda...

Really punishing Toyota there by buying a more expensive vehicle from them. :D:p

Really hope you're 1) right about that pricetag, should mean that Supra will be a big performer, and 2) wrong about being just 2-3 seconds faster than a 718 S around the ring. Caymans are great cars for sure, but not exactly fast, at least not today. Hopefully that IMO slow ~7:40 ring time is...

Lots of people bought S2000s. But they stopped updating it and kept increasing the price while the rest of the market moved on. Also FWIW I don't see a lot of Honda bikes. Mostly Suzuki, Kawasaki, Yamaha.

With Toyota being so big it's even more disappointing. They could easily afford to spend half a billion on a money-loser and just write it up to goodwill, brand enhancement. They did the same thing in F1 so many years ago. They are willing to do it for stuff like the land cruiser which barely...

NSX just got a $30k factory incentive, on top of whatever dealer discount you can negotiate, so hopefully those sales will spark up a bit. A few guys on NSXprime are reporting discounts $50-$60k off. Sounds promising. IMO it would be more exciting for Toyota to release a high-po model with a...

There was a recent article someone posted on here stating that Toyoda drove the prototype and demanded more performance, so they had to go back to the drawing board to some extent. Could have been BS but I'll keep my hopes up.

My bets (and a smidge of wishful thinking on the delivery date): Engine: Just one, some sort of turbo V6 Power: HP 435; Torque: 358 torques Rear wheel drive well duh 2+2 yeah I think so Transmission: Dual Clutch & 6 spd Weight: 3,080 lbs. Acceleration: 0-62 : 3.7 sec top speed : 190mph, do we...

Yeah... this thing has been looking like a 2020 MY for some time. :cry: It doesn't sound like that bit was part of the official quote though, so there's still a shred of hope for a 2019MY coming out sometime next year.

1) We still don't know if there is actually going to be a BMW powertrain in this car. 2) You could use the same argument against the shared platform in general. They are two companies setting out to make their own products. 3) 911 and M4 are essentially the same market anyway. Anything...

Lights look cool. Love the quotes from Toyoda. M4 and 911 are great benchmarks. 911 was the original benchmark for the FT1. Just hope it's true!!!

I'm a pretty OEM guy. Phone mount for waze, and hard-wire radar detector would be it. :thumbsup: Might put some of that door edge film on since it's pretty tight in my garage. Hmm...

Just for any of y'all wondering, this is image 010: And so far nothing from 011 to 020 has been uploaded... ;)

Here's a question for Toyota... So, when are y'all gonna unveil the Supra???

M2 CSL could be incredible.

I just went and looked up 008 and 009 too. :puke::puke::puke::puke::puke: :cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry: For what it's worth, the Century is not a concept, but a car that will be released in mid-2018. I haven't seen anything saying those 9 are the only things...

Awesome.

Do we have any idea yet of what time Toyota's presentations will be? Assuming sometime the first press day on the 25th? Can't seem to find a presentation schedule. Wondering if this is a stay-up-late Tuesday night or get-up-early Wednesday morning sort of thing. :coffee:

Errrh mah gert. Those damned blobs and that scooter. :confused1: 25th can't arrive fast enough. I really don't want to wait till NAIAS or Geneva or, heaven forbid, TMS 2019.

Dat means it's gonna cost a ton of $$$$. But we already knew that.
