Choosing between a LF-A and the Ft-86 is nothing like the choice between the MKIV Supra and the Hachi Roku.

The LF-A is a $375,000 sportscar that 99.999% of people will never have a chance of seeing let alone own given the limited production of 500 units. It has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN COMMON WITH A MKIV SUPRA other than it is made by Toyota. The supra may have been expensive but your average man could still get one at any Toyota dealer. At the time they were sold the MKIV Supra and the Hachi Roku were not the legendary cars that many now think they are. They were available at every dealer right along side camrys, corrollas, and celicas.

The LF-A may as well be unobtainium as all 500 models are probably already spoken for. As far as everyday people are concerned the LF-A is a myth barely spoken about above a whisper in toyota fanboi chat rooms and occasional autorag comparos of other uber-rare hyper exotics. Just be happy you will be able to buy a $20k FT-86 with some LF-A styling cues because that's as close as you or I will ever come to a LF-A outside of a carshow.
Kinda difficult to decide, child please tires
