A lot of the issues are due to fuel economy regs unfortunately (specifically the long gears and bad response when not full WOT). But yeah, they could still easily save the GS for the same reasons Jeff noted, but their has been no new development as far as I'm aware and I work around these...

Yes, this was 100% required no exceptions, just as was the case for the 86. There is zero tolerance for not complying with this company wide.

Haha <3

Not sure how to say this another way, but get a different girlfriend.

Yes, there are racing seats that are only 2way vs the 12way motorized ones, and I believe the HUD and some other things are optional depending on market. That said, the big question is the market vs options. Might get unlucky in some countries (USA) where you have to downgrade it after buying...

I was told by one of my F coworkers that the fully loaded I6 is ~25lbs shy of 3300lbs, so ~1485kg. IMO, that's quite a bit less than the 1535kg of the Z4 (100lbs). You don't have to have as much body bracing with the hardtop; this has always been the case, even with targa vs hardtop Supras for...

I agree entirely.

Well, they will continue to sell the GS for a while longer in other markets. It's just isn't being updated after this model.

You pretty much got it.

The GS has been discontinued in the EU already and will not be redesigned after the current model goes out. Guess what replaces it? I'll give you a hint, one notch above the Avalon (AWD package will be available apparently). Two birds with one stone and a vehicle that outsells the GS 4-1...

:popcorn:

Not when you look at the historical record :(

@Jeff Lange, apparently Toyota is doing another run of the Mark X GRMN (albeit updated) lol

All the other stuff will follow next week I also believe this is sanctioned 100%. It drives hype and now more people will be tuning in on Monday.

:)

Yeah, I'm not an expert on it, but seems an unfortunate addition.

so ugly lol some cool elements like the front end, but overall GTE spec looks WAY better IMO

the only markets where the car may have more power is outside the EU. the US car has a louder exhaust and they tested the car up to 380hp. I do not think it will make that on release, but I have repeatedly heard figures above 335hp (340ps). whether that is nonsense is anyone's guess, but that...

Other countries definitely come with their share of issues, which is generally tax and import costs. Either way, it greatly affects the ability to move cars.
