I'm actually planning to buy the LC500 over the MKV. I finally got to see the MKV in person, but it didn't do anything for me. Plus, it doesn't help that the Toyota dealer near me has it listed for $87K. I think it's a cool car, but definitely prefer the GT car. Now if I can just have the...
That dude is a jackass the more I read about him. Now he says the next rendition of the GT86 will be better to drive than the Supra. Toyota's Halo sports car is already obsolete according to this guy if he's spewing that kind of nonsense.
I'm not really freaking out about it lol. I have to see it in person first, but I think the thing that throws me off the most about the car is the short wheelbase. I haven't seen it in person, so I may change my tune once that happens. I still think the car looks a little "smushed" and could...
I'm still convinced that if Toyota would have used the LC500 chassis, trickled down some LFA tech and used an inhouse tuned V-6 TT motor, they could have created something special and put an end to a lot of the BMW collaboration haters lol. The car would have closer proportions to the FT-1, been...
The MKV can crack 3000hp, but it will still have no impact on the demand for the MKIV. I've said this multiple times, BUT NO ONE IS CROSS SHOPPING THESE CARS. They are completely different cars and most rational people know and understand this. No offense, but your post just seem anti-mkiv for...
I don't know what dealer wouldn't let you take the car out for a test drive... that's just plain ridiculous. Yes, let me buy this car without driving and find out it handles like shit, uncomfortable, etc, etc... I would tell the dealer to go pound sand and get off his high horse and remind him...
I'm on SF, but rarely go on anymore since they changed the whole platform. I miss the old days of SF and the wealth of knowledge that forum has in older threads. I think the majority of MKIV owners are good peeps, but the few bad people ruin it for everyone.
I don't think anyone doubted the motors capability to hold power. I'm worried about other things BMW's are known to have issues with... electronics, oil leaks, alternator bracket seal failure, coolant leaks, etc... All these add to the reliability of the car. I'm hopeful this car is as reliable...
