60k ? Holy funk....
As i would expect it to be. It will be GTR price. Remember 75k GTR ? Nbody would believe a Nissan to be that much ? Honestly, if this come out to be C7 competition, i rather buy a C7. Sting ray C7 is historical remark. Look into their spec numbers. Not to say, if you can bring the price down a bit by negotiating. Would be a killer. Impressive though, Toyota. |

I would love to see the S55 engine in the production car (under that toyota cover), as it is about as close to a modern 2jz-gte as current engines get. Then there would also be a chance that this car gets the 6 speed getrag manual that the new M3/M4 will get. Im sure aftermarket potential will be there too with the S55.

How much tune-able would each one be? Most likely this one... Honestly...a corvette is well...a corvette. They are always the same cars, you can drive a C5 and you'll know what the C7 is, just a lot better. I love them, but you're not far off from driving a previous gen to a current.

How tun-able friendly the Corvettes are ? If you check into LS engines, you will know. Did you see how well the C6 cope with After Market Tunes ? Very easy with Bolt on. Corvette is a Corvette, of course! But the C7 as the same as the previous ? You will need to look more into the design. C7 is a Brand new Platform. The interior would be similar, yes....same Manufacturer, same Name....Even a Camry feel similar to my Lexus....well...that doesn't make them the same car as an SUV to a Sedan. The Reasons why I think this 60k Supra may be better than C7 is 1/ Imported, not Domestic 2/ Reliability as Toyota vs Chevy 3/ Rear seats vs Front only The rest...I could not imagine Toyota would have done better than the Vet. Why did Toyota kill the Supra ? Because they had to compete with Corvette.....the same thing now. How in the blue sky could you beat a C7 is beyond me.....the Pricing + Performances |

Edit: It's stupid to argue about a car that we don't even know the specs for, i'm not even going to bother.

honestly, i think the body could use less of that "all over the place" styling. keep it nice and smooth, like that clay model, and i think it'll be sexy as hell. should make it understated, not flamboyant
