Been looking into getting a "fun" car for a while now. Was between the lexus rcf and the new supra. I've been chatting with both dealerships and toyota gave me a price of 62k out the door for the premium. (Original sticker was 85k LOL) What yall think?

That was also an option. I went last weekend to look at the supra. Overall I liked it but it's way smaller than I pictured. It's like miata small

I vote Miata. You can get two (ragtop + hardtop) for 62k. Best of both worlds. The latest iteration (ND2) is a blast to drive and loaded with all the latest tech. Good luck!

A Model 3 is the quickest of them all at a reasonable $57k. Probably need a garage or driveway with a plug though.

Waiting for the prices to come down a bit before getting one, most likely a Model Y for hauling the fam.

So I've only owned two cars, a civic ex and and my current si, but I watch a lot of reviews and the Supra seems like a much better weekend/track toy than the RCF while still being comfortable enough to drive long distances. The RCF seems like more of a fun daily driver.

I'd consider a BMW M240i if looking at the Supra. It can be had with a manual or AWD, and comes with a rear seat, too.
