Nice manual in that BMW...

I'm suprised as well, as I would even take away the steering wheel air bag if I could... I'd rather wear a four-point and head restrainer than have an explosive charge in front of my face.

I tried to gauge the size of the Z4 but failed. The driver looks really small...

AEB is for stopping the car. If the engine stalls, that's a non-issue in my opinion.

Disconnecting the engine from the wheels would be supremely easy, they would just need to use the same tech they used in my '92 Camry for the cruise control. It's literally a box that pulls on the throttle wire - slightly creepy when the accelerator pedal physically moves itself, but it works...

I hope there's an option without them. Driving a sports car doesn't need such distractions.

But where's the skill and finesse in using it? Then I might just as well buy the flappy paddle DCT (which I won't).

Thanks. It's all just going entirely overboard. I'm really looking forward to these systems getting spoofed, causing pileups behind a suddenly stopping car.

Complete FUD, factor of 10 off. It's more like 1.60$

Well, there goes ever buying a new Toyota, manual option on a sports car is not up for discussion. I talked to a Toyota dealer already about the Supra. Seems like the only ones left in the game of manual RWD cars are Porsche, Lotus, BMW and a handful of kit car companies and the one odd model...

So, since we all agree upon RWD being superior, what is the answer for life's most important topic? Over or under? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toilet_paper_orientation

Don't worry, I played along. Looking forward to see some fun stuff come out of Toyota soon. Especially the manual Supra next year...

So he's moving to Jaguar and Ford. Lame.

Something even better than a Supra? MR2? Celica something? S-FR? Finally a GT86 refresh (and this time with I4)? Or are we getting a proper AE86 replacement... light RWD coupe or hatchback grocery getter with I4? I mean, the Yaris GRMN was pretty close, but the engine was mounted the wrong way...

Please no....

It's not a negative thing in my book.

Can't get through signing?! It asks me to sign 10 random petitions I have no interest in and can't skip that step. Edit: Never mind, had to click through them all with the skip button...

Got any link to it that I can watch in 2:30h from now? The hype is getting palpable...

I really hope all of these are optional. Especially the Alexa stuff. Otherwise it'll be a bunch of modding to get rid of them. What I hope for more than a no-infotainment option, is a regular instrument panel. Physical gauges are so much better for readability than screens, especially in evening...

What they also did was move over search results generation from whatever algorithms they used before to some ML based algorithms - now it's shit for finding technical stuff, because it's intended to be "smart" in finding related stuff. Except most of the time it's not even remotely related...
