Love to see one with production-sized 18" wheels.

Grumpy needs to see a feline orthodontist - that nasty overbite is making him miserable.

More on the Tada roundtable in Geneva here: https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-shows/geneva-auto-show/a19179702/toyota-bmw-partnership/ He talks about how initially they were looking to maximize the sharing of parts with BMW and then how that became less of a priority.

If there is no manual offering, the auto they use will have to be flawless. DCT would be best for finessing the inevitable criticism they will get (hell, they are already getting it in the auto blog comments).

Honda didn't very hard to make the Type R look good, that's for sure. And FWD bias aside, that is one hell of a performance car...

Looking closer at your second image I see you've left some of the black banner across the top of the windshield which makes it appear a bit shorter in height than it really is.

The suspension setup will likely differ substantially between the two, with the Z4 being a softer GT and the Supra a true sports car. Plus the interiors are going to be completely different.

No doubt as the major player in the joint venture, BMW made it part of the contract that the Z4 would be released first, Toyota likely had little flexibility on release timing.

Looks good, although the windshield seems a bit too pillbox-like, needs another inch of two in height.

A few days ago I was thinking of starting a poll to see if we needed more polls here - then decided against it.

Thanks for the laughs.

^ Nice catch, I have never seen a car with a "sandwich" seam running the length of the door edge like that.

While it may not be good news, it makes sense from a marketing standpoint that there would be a long break between the concept and production unveiling. Why spend a fortune doing a prototype if it is going to be overshadowed by the release of the production car a few weeks later? The prototype...

The car looks so much better now the padding on the hood has been removed - compare:

Topgear now saying Jan 2019 is when the production version will be unveiled.

No production car shown until Jan 2019?? WTF??

The 3.14 could be an engineer's idea of a joke (value of pi).

1496 kg is a very porky 3298 lbs. That better be wrong unless it's cheaper than expected. Even the stated minimum (1388/3060) is not great, more than a base Cayman.

Well at least the question of whether there will be an adaptive spoiler has been answered - in the negative.

Looks very impressive, but then many otherwise meh cars do when they have highly modified racing bodies. But I do think this is a promising precursor. Vague on the release date though.
