interior sorta reminds me of what we saw in the supra mule

oh please, I went with the size of the wheel arches which isn't that big on the FT1. those two pics are shot at the same angle unlike the two you overlapped which are a bit off..who cares anyways, you can tell it is proportionally taller by merely eyeballing it. for reference in comparison to...

your pic makes the wheelbase look like it is 2 feet shorter

proportion. lay the two on top of each other. where does the bottom of the window line sit in relation to the body? as you said, the length is shorter, so any increase in height will only make the car look frumpy compared to the ft1.

of course it doesn't "look" smaller when the mule is considerably taller everywhere.

of course it isn't comfortable, it is just the fact that they are there for the possibility of having more buds with ya (how else are you gonna stuff 3 chicks with you for a launch control reaction video?) whereas it can feel almost claustrophobic with a pure 2 seater.. personally I've always...

the proportions are the same as the mule, not sure how that would change. and the stance looks the same, think you're referring to the pics where the car is cornering and looks even lower. body lines might be different, sure, but i can't see how that rendering's overall profile/silhouette won't...

you didn't get my point...it wasn't bragging about toyota, it was to show how stagnant the entire industry is. what about mercedes? do you think their sales is due being the best in class or being a bargain? the higher up you go in price, the more branding & exclusivity becomes bigger factors...

oh please, sales figures almost have no correlation to a vehicle's ability..there are many examples we could bring up (ie nearly all of toyota's entire lineup, among the worst in many benchmarks but leads sales in many classes). Who is not having a hard time moving sedans and coupes off dealer...

are you missing some limbs?

lol? you're being quite silly & unrealistic. quite wrong about the F cars and the 86...hell, what car under $35 K is lightweight & powerful? this is business, not charity..

might as well delete most of this forum if we are that concerned with legitimate sources

lol..wake me up when bmw cares to put a hybrid in a Z4 (wheres the sticker?) and when they allow an economy brand's factory to assemble anything BMW related. what happened to magna steyr? otherwise who doubles their production costs by having 2 separate locations for a low volume coupe whether...

sure, bmw needed the money but it can be argued that it was more vital for toyota to find a partner. ya gotta figure bmw saw toyota needed one to bring out a $25 K sports car so it isn't surprising that they required one for a more expensive project, whereas asking to build a sports cars is...

lol wtf now built in canda and bmw gets the hybrid powertrain? :what:

..?

don't recall it off the top of my head though MT take rate was well above 50%.

no bmw parts? how do you figure that, just because of the ZF trans? and yes I agree, the LC getting 4 more HP was a tremendous secret. again, the fact that the list is bullshit or not is not that relevant especially considering most info we've gotten on this site has been hogwash anyways...

it would surprise me if Nissan doesn't help Mitsubishi release some sort of hot hatch since they don't have one themselves.

Toyota indeed knows the importance of a manual, but this is BMW handling the project and they ultimately decide what Toyota gets. Despite being on the same chassis, Mazda did not give Fiat their latest transmission featured on the ND Miata so can you imagine how reluctant BMW would be to share...
