the rear is not all that important in RWD's. actually you do not want a big rear bar that would lift one side; rendering a 1WD (1 wheel drive) lol.
miata/s2000 folks even delete the rear one entirely for autocross.
Big front is the way to go!
man, chill .. am not trying to verbally attack either you or Tada san.
I DO appreciate you connecting the community and DO appreciate him hearing us. That's the "Toyota Way".
The wind buffeting thing is a "bug". I was counting on this kinda debugging of the initial model-years, so by the time...
you kinda found the corner weights yourself :p
members here who attended official events corroborated that the base is like ~100lb lighter than the PE. (will search for it...)
heck even with the PE's 3372lb, the C8 is approx 3600-3700lb (the 3366lb figure is again the dry weight). of course...
the C8's $59,999 MSRP is a bit misleading IMHO. go to the configurator; check the Z51 package (who drives a supercar with all seasons and no LSD??) and some other bits and its almost $85K. fully loaded its $111,862.
from that article, I feel like the BMW is distinctively German and the supra is so as well, Japanese that is.
The more conservative hips and the "reverse Hitler-moustache" of the z4 are very German, more mature than the muscular hips, expressive diffuser and front "winglets" in the supra. That...
they thought the difference in mass was insignificant, but lowering the car -With shorter tires- will lower the CoG too.... but... JDM 18's are 2.1 inches taller than the 86 tires,even a tiny bit taller than the 19's.... (275/35R19 @ 26.6", 275/40R18 @26.7" for A90 vs 215/45R17 @24.6" for the 86)
