Do it, Carvana, CarMax and Vroom are offering tons of money for them right now.
I have a '22 Limited with optional LED interior lights, all weather mats, trunk liner, and rear bumper applique. So I get the fancy headlights, leather & ultrasuede interior, heated seats, and 18" wheels with the Michelin PS4 tires on them with the limited package. Obviously its a 6MT.
I'd say its about the same honestly. I tried to sit in the back and have someone else drive and you just can't fit a grown adult in the back seat. I'm 5'10" 150lb, and its just not possible. Small kids might be fine, a car seat would be ok, but this is definitely not a family oriented car like the FiST.

I think its price prohibitive for the Supra. The 4cyl version isn't worth buying, and the 6cyl version is 50k+. Not exactly the most affordable, whereas the 86 is far closer to Fiesta STs original MSRP.
Has pricing been announced on Z yet?

I think there is going to be a number of FiST’s to Z’s . I am pretty damn interested in the Z myself. Of course I would not be getting rid of my FiST . I would be adding the Z into the mix. The M3 on the other hand is going out the door.
Actually I follow the Z and the pricing starts 35k not 39. Though it does range up to 45k for what would be a Nismo version.

I think people need to remember when comparing cars that we drive hot hatches, not dedicated sports cars. The FiST does drive like a sports car, but is based on an economy hatch. The expectation of our cars should reflect that IMHO. But if someone what’s a dedicated sports car there are many options including pre owned Boxsters, C5’s, etc. Just in case someone else decides to jump ship. [emoji17]
Ya but I think some want to buy new and some have past allegiances or favorites that lead them to the Z or the twins. I know quite few hardcore Nissan fans who bought FiST’s as daily drivers of course I am one of them. Ya I own a BMW 
but that was always the competition in high school. (510 days) . I have no allegiance to them I actually have more to Ford because I not only started with a 65 Mustang but also owned two MKI Fiesta’s one of which was a an S! In between all that and after was a plethora of different Nissans from z’s to trucks and Infiniti’s.
There are also many ex Subie drivers with FiST’s that see the BRZ as finally becoming the car it was always supposed to be Then you have some that will take the GR86 from just liking the looks better. After all in a sense it’s a Subie underneath. Which makes it easier for me to own as well as well Nissan vs Toyota . They have always been Japans Ford to GM . Germany’s BMW to Mercedes Etc…
