? It won't be using the old VQ37, I think 2 turbos are enough to increase the torque output.

I believe this is just a small part of their hail mary ‘12 step plan’ to prevent bankruptcy. Most of the work for this new car is already done, it just need new sheet metal and interior since the VR30 has been swapped into the FM platform.

And the 300hp Z will have way more overhead when tuning. If a Nismo Z comes out, the Supra has no chance

They really to throw tradition out the window. This is just another reason to use the V35a thus taking control of their own car. This gives Europe a ~400hp model and allows Toyota to tune the car for ~500hp without incredibly limited supply. Of course I would take an inline 6 over v6 any day but...

It may not be $40k but it will still have to be much cheaper than the Q60 RS at $57k. Also, a 400hp Z blows away a 335hp Supra on paper in regions that don’t get the 382hp Supra. And a 300hp Z blows away a 4 cylinder Supra. I wonder how Toyota will respond

GR Supra Super Sport has a nice ring to it

The Supra may outperform the Z on the track assuming it is staying on the Z34 platform, but the Z will blow the Supra away when it comes to aesthetics and price. I understand not everyone cares about aesthetics but I do think it is a huge factor in the emotional response of seeing a visually...

When I emailed them they said it had a torque converter auto.

Looks great. Clean lines while also being aggressive and paying homage to prior generations

I think it is still possible to think it is a good car even if you're disappointed in it and the decisions made along the way

I don't why that author used imaged of the SEMA 3000gt but the leaks came from BestCarJP which have been pretty reliable up to this point.

Yeah I agree $112k is unrealistic in the marketplace, I was just converting 12 million yen to USD. If I remember correctly, the GRMN 86 was double the price of the regular 86 so who knows

I wonder how Gazoo racing plans on completing with M, AMG, and RS models with such low production volume on GRMN models. Yeah they may compete performance wise but that doesn't matter when those models are difficult to get a hold of and they do not benefit from economies of scale with such...

Wouldn't that be 6 years? 1. 2020 2. 2021 3. 2022 4. 2023 5. 2024 6. 2025 Still short nonetheless

No sign of a manual is interesting as well

Limited to 200 units, I understand they want it to be a limited release but that may be too limited. Interesting that it will use the M-DCT since even the M3/M4 will use the ZF8.

I understand that he has to misdirect a little bit in his interviews but that him using the aftermarket as a reason/excuse is still the dumbest thing he has said. This is one of the worst cars to mod aesthetically. I would love to see an aftermarket front bumper, but the sensors make that...

Nothing is at this point

All you need to know is that it has 100% less torque dip. SMH

? I thought it was going to increase output to 217hp and 177lb-ft
