    Obviously some factors will be considered including pricing and the increasingly unlikely turbo model

    +1. Hard to answer this question when there's no price information as of now.

    I too would hold out for a turbo model, and would probably hesitate just a fraction if no such option was available.

    But at the end of the day, I'd buy one if I had the coin but wouldn't let it ruin my life if I didn't, after all it hasn't inspired the same love-at-first-sight as the original 86's.

    Not until they are older and there proves to be a strong aftermarket. But definitely plan on owning one at some point!

    if you want strong after market support , there needs to be strong initial sales and people wanting to modify it. Company's are not going to make parts for cars which are not going to sell in high numbers especially in australia.

    Pending my financial situation when they get released I will be looking to get one and if they are going to be popular and I am still in my current job it maybe the test bed for after market developments

    If it isn't sub $30,000 then ill wait for a second hand 1.

    If it is above $30,000 then it better be dam good.

    Ill make my own assumption when i see it in the flesh and see the final release specs
