Even if the rest of the world is right, there are literally 0 MKIVs for sale here where I'm at. I would either have to buy one sight unseen from another country or get time off work, buy a plane ticket, find one I like and then wait 2 months for it to arrive at the port to pay +10% in import...
Even though I completely disagree on the looks being out of proportion and some other comments, that's a very good first review of the production vehicle. Are we expecting more reviews from other sources on this same event? Maybe videos?
That happens to all new cars unfortunately. Maybe not as much as the Supra but that's because other cars don't have the same reputation. Even if Toyota reproduced the MKIV, people would hate on it because it's too expensive or because Toyota is too lazy and can't build a new sports car. I'm...
It has two intakes one from both passenger and driver sides. I assume the air gets water cooled before entering the turbos at the top of the engine unless the air filters are up there which would be weird. It then goes out to the turbos and merges together in one single pipe at the front of the...
I'm in the 2nd category but many people who I have spoken with would change their minds knowing the engine has a Toyota touch as most like how it looks but get turned off when they know it's sharing the same platform as the Z4. I would love to see a side by side disassembly video or blog of a...
Gladly.
So when can we confirm/debunk Toyota's involvement in building the B58? I'm a Toyota fanboy so if I knew Toyota had any involvement, I would hold BMW's 40i line up in much higher regard and maybe even consider one in the far future knowing they have some Toyota DNA. BMW purists though...
Depending on your location and dealership, you can probably custom order one to your preferred specs and features at the cost of additional waiting time.
This goes both ways. How many of those MKIV owners you know are personal friends or significant others? Even then they wouldn't tell you everything. It's not hard to hide something like this unless you get into their cars often. I personally wouldn't do such thing but if I did I wouldn't just...
C7s are over hyped. My cousin had one and with less than 2000 miles had an engine failure. Every few thousand miles after that he went through 2 transmissions (auto) and 1 differential + another transmission. They only added the diff the last time because if a car under warranty gets the same...
We have a very reliable source claiming the 7:38 time of early mules that were track purpose built and the guy who developed the car claims it will do 7:4Xs (probably a 7:49 rather than a 7:40).
We can also speculate as much as we want. No one said it will definitely, 100% run these times in...
No, it's not.
Literally no one said that. The people buying it now like the way it looks and are satisfied by the numbers and will read reviews before pulling the trigger. If the reviews are bad, they can change their minds.
Can you drive it? Can you even sit in one if you found one? Did you...
I just want to add my .02 regarding Toyota's open deck engines. From hands on experience, Toyota's open deck engines can handle a good amount of boost just fine. My open deck, stock sleeve with 0.015 over bore 3UR can hold up to 30 psi and I'm pretty sure the 2UR can handle as much if not more...
The misinformation is real. This guy thinks it's 100% identical to the Z4 interior with a BMW "V6". I stopped watching after that.
For God's sake people, all cars have fake vents. Let's just be happy we got actual exhaust tips unlike every other new car coming out these days.
I can't believe someone would be this ignorant. I would rather say he's just trolling since most of his reasoning for this petition doesn't make sense in the first place.
Toyota didn't make the MKV to satisfy the internet. I pay my ISP for internet last time I checked and I'm pretty sure non of...
And they still won't be. 10,000 a year is 1/10th of mustang sales, 1/8th of Camaro sales and less than 1/2 Corvette sales. They will definitely be more common than the MKIV for obvious reasons but that's not necessarily bad. Future replacement parts will be cheap and available everywhere. 2JZ...
Red looks really bad on the Supra imo. If they were both the same grey color I think It would be fair. Pics posted by OP favor the Z4 more too. They're taken from a lower and closer angle at the front and back causing a fisheye effect making it look wider. Also, MKV pics look photoshoped/CGI...
