Hey, BMW does know how to build a damn fine car. From our recently departed M3 to the new F90 M5, they all drive very well. This is also coming from someone with experience with a track built FD RX-7 and E30 325i, Viper TA, 991.2 GT3, etc. Also currently have a 981 GT4.
No, I think the inability of 900 to sell speaks more of the attitudes of the people. It is them saying they did not have enough faith in Toyota to make a worthy successor to the Supra. We will see tomorrow morning whether they were right or wrong.
That’s very true, other cars with the B58 can run pretty evenly with much more powerful cars, but I still wish it had 382. Otherwise I will have to go JB4 with BEF or Mission perf or HC tuning ECU flash to get to power levels I deem acceptable for the price.
Says our reputable source. The GRMN is more than I myself am willing to pay. Now, I have a lot of experience with the B58 in a M240i and it rocks, but I would be hoping it would make a little more.
I've been a big proponent of this car, but 335hp is too little. They are asking too much for this car, especially considering a light revision would put this car at 382 hp.
So nobody knows for sure right now, but it apparently wont have the same engine as the new GT4 Clubsport. So that rules out the 3.8. The only real other engine is the 4.0 from the 991.2 GT3. I don't know what's going to happen, but I would assume the 4.0 detuned.
I must say, I have a GT4, and the time it runs on the Nurburgring are similar to the Supra (or at least what is rumored). The new GT4 will definitely be faster, so therefore its times will also be faster.
That’s a good point. But I am certain they will not be very limited. Toyota has to recoup the development costs of their engine and all the other equipment it’s packing. If they only sell 100 they will have to be stupid expensive or Toyota just doesn’t care about profit anymore.
