“I already tell you Toyota’s sports car goal must be three brothers - 86 is the middle [brother], top model is something like a Supra,” Tada said, confirming the S-FR sits at the bottom of the family tree.

So we are getting a tiny, perhaps 130 hp, coupe that could start under $20,000. The 86 stays as a high-handling entry level sportscar, and the upcoming Supra is a full-fledged sportscar more inline with the Nissan Z instead of a Corvette alternative outside its top form. !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! where I had the Supra starting at $37,000 and moving up until it touches the $60,000 mark.

Basically I’m thinking the Broyotas will cover $18,000-$26,000, $27,000-$38,000, $37,000-$60,000. All extremely handling focused. Lexus F will handle everything above that level.

So not RMR2 but FMR2. But MR2 is MR2 but not “MR2.” Ya kno’ what I’m sayin’?

Saw it in person a few times... It’s really not that bad at all once you’re next to it.

I am hoping the S-FR happens, but MR2 successor does not sound like a S-FR.

Looks like a fun little car. And I like the design.

If I didn’t swap cars with my wife so often (who can’t/won’t drive a manual), I’d seriously consider it.

I see it as a RWD Sera successor. So, Yay!

I bet it never makes it to the U.S. market.
