BMW Z4 or Toyota Supra

This will be one mighty comparison test! Co developed and sharing platform, engines etc will the Toyota be more reliable and the BMW more interesting?
Test of personality . Which version would you have?

Which Supra, they spanned 10 years or so with differing specs.

I'd take the Supra, it will be a fire-breathing twin turbo supercar, the BMW version will just be a cruiser.

The next one. BMW and Toyota have partnered to develop a new sports car together and then sell own version of it.
Hence, which version would you have?

Please let Toyota do anything related to keeping the oil in the engine.

Oh, Bit like the Subaru Toyota then. Didn't quite read what you wrote correctly. Is there pictures somewhere yet?

I believe the suggestion is that BMWs leak oil. Where anyone would get that idea is a mystery.

Aaaaaah. Buggered if i know if they do or not.

They can do in some fairly recent Turbo 6cyl models, and very, very, expensive to fix.

Take the Supra - at least its indicators will work and the driver will use them!

I quite like the paint job, wonder if i could get 1 like that but in yellow?

So now Toyota will have two completely different big powerful 2-door coupes at the same time. this, and that V8 Lexus. Why? Why not just make the Supra a stripped out lexus coupe with a manual gearbox and as much of a weight reduction as possible?

meow_mix, Oct 22, 8:10am
Because the Supra will be a true supercar, while the Lexus RC F is more a grand tourer or GT. I couldn't see Toyota making the Supra with a V8 when you consider the Supra's 6 cylinder heritage.

If the new Supra borrows the BMW electronics I would pass on both and rather have a genuine Lexus of some description.
Is the Supra likely to have bioplastic wiring insulation etc?
