In a lot of ways - I think it's a good thing that the Z came out - plain and simple - I don't think the Supra would be getting a manual if it wasn't for the Z to begin with. Is it a better car - depends on what you are using it for? I do agree that it seems more like a GT than a 'true sports car' and we don't know (till we test drive it) how 'fun factor' will play into the vehicle. The way I look at the Z is that I would lean toward the base model and look to mod the hell out of it; as for the trans - that is easy for me - 6MT all the way - simply bc it's more engaging - if you want to talk only speed - are we talking stock only, modded as well, track vs just drag racing or street racing.

I guess what I am getting at is - if you like the Supra - great - KEEP IT! If you are wanting something different - the Z is offering a manual with a large community that offers support when modding. There are other options coming out as well - the new CTR, the Corolla GR and the new Z. It's not a bad time to be a car enthusiast (hell, even the current Mustang GT and Camaro ZL1 are incredible for their size and the modding ability as well). Anyway - end rant and I will be curious when the Supra comes out with a manual - and how that compares to the current market of things (ADM, shortages and all the other dealer BS we are all dealing with)

I like his reviews most of the time but oof that shift speed right around the 5:40 ish mark is painfully slow

ZF8 is far ahead of that Benzbox lol. Overall the Z is an easy tech gen behind the Supra.

Interesting response from that Z Thread lol -
#7
so tires and exhaust...most here would probably replace them anyways.

some road noise and uncomfortable seats i don't feel are deal breakers.

the weight? just add more powa

The amount of copium used by Z guys are out of control
They need an intervention

All I hear in my head is, 'it's brown!'

That color is terrible

Interesting to see how Nissan didn’t worry about streamlining the underside of the car at all especially compared to the Supra

Just confirms my suspicions that the new Z will be a pita to work on.

Nothing like over paying for a 370z w new motor lol. So much for aero efficiency etc. More and more that looks like a car slapped together and stamp new on it. Unfortunately reflects the performance car world at the mid to low end today!
