Certainly a bigger, different type of car, with a back seat, larger trunk and probably wildly larger gas tank if BMW sticks to their stupidly small tank in Z cars. Of course the Mustang is a manual, which is either a good thing or bad. I really don't see a large market for this Supra. The muscle cars will remain comfortably more powerful and cheaper. The Cayman and 4C will remain sportier and more focused. I think the most promising thing for the Supra would be if Mazda and/or Nissan resurrect the RX or Z to create some competition for this thing. |

If this supra had 400+ HP for 40kish base it would be a great alternative to the GT but it seems to be in an awkward spot. I also wouldn't ever buy anything else B58 based lol |

Don't get me wrong, the S550 Mustang is a great performer, but a Mustang for $50k that is not a high HP GT500 or GT350R = Hard pass |

Used mustang's are selling for silly high prices here, but then 18 ZL1s are selling for more than the 59k my dealer was offering new, so the market is ridiculous |

Consider other factors - inflation and the rising cost of vehicle production. To find a non-econobox for under 40k is becoming harder and harder, let alone a performance car. The difference now is, a well optioned muscle car can match the performance of a similarly optioned german alternative that costs 70-80k. The gap has closed significantly.

2016 BMW M4 vs Camaro SS
I know not everyone likes these guys but the video seems on point regarding this topic....the Camaro is over $30K cheaper than the BMW and is almost identical in performance.

Anyway, all new car prices have gotten way out of control. No wonder most folks can't save $ or do anything while the 1% just gets richer... |

My previous car was a 2018 Camaro SS 1LE. Had heads up, Recaros, wide sticky tires, upgraded suspension with magnetic shocks. Basically a ZL1 without the supercharger. Some people were getting them around $35k new on the Camaro forums. That is the biggest bargain out there IMO. I just needed something I could drive every day with a family or I would have kept it.
