interior shot

check the interior shots. the floorpan is production spec. no room for backseats. it's a 2 seater, 100%

Not if they replace the torque converter with a 57hp electric motor - as this is an option for the ZF8 trans. I am sure that BMW have supplied Toyota with a 340hp B58. What Toyota do with it, who knows. I'm taking 340hp with a grain of salt until we hear further information.

Apparently is GT3/ GTE, not GT300/500 spec. Just like the M8 GTE concept.

Is the timer set for the Toyota press release? I don't imagine they will rip the covers off the concept the minute the door opens?

Please take one million photos! every square millimetre of the car

A70 mentioned it would be more GT3 spec - IE production height bonnet lights etc. So should be fairly accurate to production car

^this I hope they can reveal some tech specs on the B58 tuned to GT3 / LM GTE spec

The 2URGSE is a phenomenal engine

Nic.Ch, do you live in Suisse? Will you be attending the Geneva motor show in person? That would be awesome.

The other argument people fail to recognise is that given Toyota's ridiculously high reliability standards (and therefore reputation)... do they really think that they'd allow their hero model to be in contrary to these requirements (if the BMW running gear is "so unreliable")? There's no way...

most of the people whinging about the SPX could never afford one, let alone a JZA80, so their fanboy opinion is irrelevant... sadly they still sprout it out for the other fanboy circlejerk lol

I wonder whether the GT3 SPX will have a production transmission or be replaced with a full sequential? Anyone know what the BMW M6 GT3 runs?

Oh yes

we can only hope. i am trying to listen for that depressing lurch sound as a torque converter vehicle moves from a standstill

I asked that question earlier. Trying desperately to tell of the next gear was the same ratio (supporting guff theory) Or a different ratio (fingers crossed)

I'm guessing thats pre-Toyota fiddling with it though. THat's probably the 'base' power output before Toyota adds whatever they add.

also, has to have amber turn signals for EU regulations IIRC, only the US is allowed flashing red? I think? Certainly need amber in AU, JPN etc

you can see something on the door, near the side vent, in one of the pics. I remember our "mark three supra usernamed friend" said it still had some small cladding on it. it could be a part of the car itself, but looks stuck on. especially given manufacturers will cover a lot of vents in snow...

One of the insiders said there is still a small amount of camo on it. I know on the doors for one... not sure where else... also, here is pic I was thinking of...
