grt if it was all wheel drive.
Neat. Downsides (IF it's made)--probably limited run, so +$15k over MSRP, Chinese tranny...

This vs the 650 HP GT500... Hmmmm
As far as a new Supra, I hope they don't make a new Supra, did you see how badly they ruined the Scion FR-S/Subaru BR-Z? 200 HP to carry on the AE86 name???
their just making money and to provide for the masses. I just like how the supra was styled. bet enuff mods , the supra could fly...tuners did build a highly hp'd civic, wanna say over 600hp.
hermaphrodite. best of both.
AWD is the key fer shure....They are saying almost 600hp AWD and all the toys.
dang its grabbin some branch....
If the BRZ (retarded name) has 200hp you do realize that's roughly 70hp MORE than the Hachi-Roku right?
Still, for this market, and especially at this altitude it'll suck. Take an N/A Miata up to Mt Evans and see how much "fun" it is. On the downhill, sure, going up...get out and push...
And at an estimated MSRP of $28k you may as well get the cheaper Hyundai Turbo Genesis Coupe or one of the 300hp V6s from them, or in the Mustang and Camaro base coupes.
Rumor has it that there *might* be a turbo for the first refresh, so maybe in 2014/2015 there'll be one...if anyone still cares by then.
New Supra? Believe it when I see it. They could have done a new Supra instead of the LFA, but they opted to go high-end instead.

And back to the original post, nice HP #s, but it is still a mustang. And the title of the article had to do with why buy a M3 over a Boss 302SX.... well, it is a Ford vs a BMW, for the same amount of money, quality historically is better for the BMWs.

Seeing how Honda has Once again said they will make a new NSX people expect Toyota to flag a super sport and also Mitsubishi as well. some say toyota may take longer due to the work put into the LFA and Scion FR-S
only bad thing is i think the NSX they will display this year will be a hybrid to battle the LFA-H prototype

The "it's just a mustang" arguement is about as retarded as the BMW quality remark. BMW's aren't exactly known to be the most mechanically sound/reliable cars on the road. GM made an M5 killer. An M3 killer isn't unattainable. Comparing a caged track vehicle to a "luxury coupe" is pertty stupid, however. That's Jalopnik for ya though.
Nice stang. But i'd like to see a new supra too! That was a badass machine.
I know how that feels i had a lil 4 banger.....top speed in the mnts climbing a pass, 45....glad those days are behind.Take an N/A Miata up to Mt Evans and see how much "fun" it is. On the downhill, sure, going up...get out and push...
yeah....those are the damn pinkie up japanese elite lexus folks. but you gotta admit that LFA is a bad arse car....New Supra? Believe it when I see it. They could have done a new Supra instead of the LFA, but they opted to go high-end instead.
that is true....or pin ball it on 25.
