200 hp out of the box is a very smart move. They could create an extremely capable platform to tune. IOW a good STARTING point. The cost will be much lower then a brand new z reflecting the power of course, but come now, you wouldn’t buy a cheaper car and spend the rest of the money you would have spent on solid tires/fuel/track time? I would. And I’m not the only one. If you can afford one, buy your z. I’ll be looking for the power to weight ratio and price on the new car and I doubt the toyota will be heaviest.

And like he said ^ add boost or turn up the boost if the number is all that bothers you. Sure looks like an intercooler and plenty of direct air to it.

if you look and the picture with the low close up on the front bumper… you’ll notice a intercooler! 200hp my butt with the g sport version.

A car like that with only a 2.0L engine and 200hp? What’s Toyota thinking??? Next thing you know it’ll be FWD as well. Epic Fail. Just bring back the Supra and be done with it!

Very nice looking but again they I believe are using the old wrx setup and making 24 less hp that is a lot of FAIL

Isn’t this like a AE86 revival? (An affordable FR sports car)
The AE86 Trueno; now that’s a fantastic car! Hats off to Toyota!

Looks great, but only 200 hp. Give me a 370Z instead. FAIL~!
