Do we know if they will renew the partnership? Do you think they will continue to produce the Supra?
No idea. But doubt they will renew this specific deal. Bmw wasn't even going to continue the z4 if not for this deal. If anything it'll be whatever comes after the a90. Whether it be hybrid, BEV, or whatever.

I've always been confused why folks cross shop a 2 door purpose built RWD sports car with a 4 door family econo-hauler that has an upgraded drivetrain.

I always thought they would compliment each other.

Keep your Civic if you have a family to haul around.

The supra is tight and not that practical.

What I don't get how you just bought a new car and already making plans to sell it/trade-in, in only a year if you do get an allocation. What was the point? Rich people things??

I wouldnā€™t agree w this statement at all. Iā€™d put the fl5 against the Supra on a track any day of the week. And to call it an econo family hauler is outlandish lol. Itā€™s like calling the new Shelby ā€œjust a mustangā€

Definitely not rich. I got the car at MSRP so I wonā€™t lose anything on it if I decided to sell. I wasnā€™t sure how much Iā€™d like the car until after I got it. Iā€™m just saying that Iā€™m not ready to give up my spot at the dealer just yet. That may Change

Bestcar is reporting the next gen will be a heavily updated version of the current model. Think along the lines of the new Mustang and Camry.

However, @A70TTR and @PerformanceSound are hinting at an in-house V6 turbo Hybrid A100.

the Z4 isn't ending until 10/25 so it will most likely be a 2026 MY

There most likely wonā€™t be a facelift considering the partnership between toyota and bmw is supposed to end in 2025.

there will probably be just a new ā€œspecial editionā€ with a different color, spoilerā€¦
It's now 3/26.

Production of G29/J29 has been extended by 5 months to 03/26.

Looks like we found the obligatory ā€œitā€™s just a Honda guy.ā€ And Iā€™m going to guess you havenā€™t driven one. But keep pulling up road and track comparisons if it makes you feel better about your purchase Razor.
I never said any thing bad about the FL5. I just posted actual data. Sorry that you didn't get what you wanted.

I wonder who would make it? Would Toyota produce it or still have BMW make it?
