I was just wondering when that new 131 hits the market what kid of price effects would have to the original Evora
latest models such as 2013 or 2014 .
would valueless of these go up or reduced Or in that matter over all as GT 430 ?
Thank you in advance for your expertise .

Have fun and drive safe

I think the price Will drop, I have a feeling a lot of folks are going to dump their Evoras.

I hope the price of the Evora will drop so I can pick up another NA or an GT depending on the value and option available. I was ready on getting a great deal for an NA about 2 months ago but someone beat me to it.

I think it has a lot to do with the 131 specs. If 131 lacks some of the highlights of the Evora such as light weight, manual option, analog experience, amazing handling, etc; then the Evora may appreciate in the coming years. Of course the opposite is possible as well... We will have a better take on it after the launch in July.

Well I am sure it will be lighter engine weight and overall lighter car with a dual clutch
but after all what kind of price effect on the older Evoras would have if any since they are not many of them .
current Toyota V6 Engine is : 3.5 V6 weighs 1660 Kg / 3660 lbs
If they use The M 139 weighs 354 pounds (160.5 kilograms).
Look for this engine in the A45, CLA 45, and GLB 45 in the near future.
Mercedes-AMG finally announces the official specs for its new 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that goes under the internal designation M 139. In the higher-spec S trim, the mill offers 416 horsepower (310 kilowatts) and beats the previous-gen A45 with 375 hp (280 kW) to take the title as world's most powerful factory-offered four-cylinder engine ever available in a production vehicle. If we want to split some very thin hairs, the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution FX-440 MR made 440 hp from its 2.0-liter four-cylinder, but production amounted to just 40 units exclusively for the UK.

thank you guys again

Heard a rumor that ALL variants were able to be either Auto or Manual, not sure I believe it, but I did hear it from someone whom talked to Lotus....supposedly.

"All I can say is that she is also being greatly anticipated and that the exterior will have lines of the Evija – our hypercar- which already gives you an idea of what you can expect! "
