"I was able to find 12 B58D cars with VINs WZ1DB0C09LW020384 thru WZ1DB0C09LW020395 here
There's nothing special about them other than that from what I am seeing except a couple of them have Style 761 wheels (5 series M Performance 18s)"
Because it doesn't prove anything. Just because it is an off the shelf motor, doesn't mean Toyota didn't help the design before it was put on the metaphorical shelf. I am not saying that Toyota did however, just saying that is is not proof by any means
"TGR, like the other competitors, also met with severe conditions. About eight hours after the start, oil leaked from the LEXUS LC transmission. Choosing to replace the transmission, the LEXUS LC was forced to take a pit stop for more than two hours. At the same time, the GR Supra, which was...
Out of the dozens are dozens of partnered vehicles, when has that ever been the case?
You say this like a PSA is going broadcast and suddenly people will be opening their eyes quick to sell their car like it's stock is falling. This is a gradual phenomenon that doesn't result in a 'hit.'...
Anyone else think this angle is too steep for an accurate test? Decompressing the rear suspension moves a lot of weight above the hub line, which is a very important factor in their own equation. Although I wouldn't be surprised if the Supra had a higher CoG, I think this test is flawed
I have never said it won't depreciate, it is a car after all. Many times throughout this thread I have actually stated it will, just not as bad as the German stereotype. I also mentioned earlier that it will depreciate like M and M performance cars, which as you have shown, depreciate much...
I think is very improbable for anyone to factor in the E89 Z4 when relating to the A90 in any way shape or form, especially depreciation.
I barely think the G29 will impact the A90 depreciation in the same way values of the A80 and SC300/400 have moved independently of one another. The G29 and...
Of course they did, the old Z4's weren't nearly the car the new one is nor was it an enthusiast car like they used to be.
Although the Supra is related to the Z4, they don't compete in the same demographic in the same way the SLC doesn't compete with the C43/C63
Ha funny.
If everyone found out years ago, how would it impact the used car market years from now?
The BMW M models depreciate at the same rate as the average Toyota as per Desmo's link above so I don't see how that's an issue.
Youre generalizing the average Toyota buyer as someone who...
I don't he is implying that at all, he doesn't even say the MK4 anywhere in his post just blanket statements such as "Japanese cars" and "German cars"
This statement here "Or would the brand and Japanese heritage keep the supra's value a little higher than their German counterparts" references...
