Sure, but that cost for the rear axel is spread across most of their lineup. It wasn't developed for these 2 cars.
This is a BMW. It's not cost efficient to ship parts from Japan to Austria. Also, every manufacturer builds things a little differently. I'm sure BMW avoided having actual Toyota...
If you'd ever had the misfortune of attempting to sit in the rear seats of the mk4, you wouldn't be complaining about losing them. The GT86 rear seats are small, but they can be used in a pinch for small people and children. The mk4 rear seats... not so much. Ok for toddlers and very young...
Yup, they pulled their cars from 2 major series on 2 major platforms just to give the Japanese home team an advantage. Porsche did that in Forza Motorsport 6 and quickly realized their mistake and corrected it with an all Porsche expansion. Let's hope Toyota figures it out too... they are the...
And a serious question I want asked from as many Toyota employees as possible....
Is Toyota going to pull their head out of their ass and give Turn 10 Studios and the Forza franchise back the Toyota car license??? I'm quite sure there is some back door deal at play with Sony here on this as the...
Holy crap, there it is. Real deal, officially made, glossy marketing media with no good damn camo (well maybe just a shot in the beginning, even Toyota had to poke fun at how long they dragged that shit out).
It looks.... good. Now that I see it naked in motion, it actually reminds me a lot of...
Sure, if it was made in Japan or Asia. But I don't think there is anyway to get that BMW platform down less then $35k with any engine under the hood. Maybe if they shipped it without an interior lol.
No, the logical natural progression, considering that what they are finally delivering to us is a car with essentially the exact same size, wheel base and suspension design as the 86, would have been to do a 2nd gen of the 86 with Subaru and give us an 86 variant and a Supra variant off the same...
Welcome to the YoutTube generation. At the risk of sounding like the old guy in the room, I don't get the under 30 set's need to digest all information via Youtube videos. There's a million guys like this on the net, harvesting info from forums and news sites and then turning 3 or 4 pieces of...
Disagree. I like the simplicity of the mk4 interior and I don't have a huge problem with the quality of the parts, I don't even mind the door panels! The mk4 interior represents the car well, it has all of the fat trimmed off, just the basics in a nice simple, light, attractive package. Whilst...
Toyota, but to answer the OP, as far as we know right now, its 100% BMW. At least parts content wise. Did Toyota Sense make it onto this thing? As far as we know right now that stuff would be the only made in Japan parts on the thing.
